My son in law who lives near me is home with Covid .His dog is by his side and only leaves when he has to do his …..

Ted Williams was the best power hitter that I ever saw,however,Mantle was the best hone run hitter and Mays the best overall player.

Due to Parkinsons and other illnesses I have not been able to walk unassisted since 2016 .I am getting worse in that regard every day. When I was able to walk I did an annual Parkinsons Walk in NY..The last Walk that I attempted to do was in September 2019 with my wife holding me but I could not complete it.I get weekly e-mails from the Michael J.Fox Foundation and I am an online member.We have message boards and post there.I do not expect to see a cure in my lifetime.I hope I am wrong..

Thanks,Greg.My Support Group has been meeting and or via Zoom for 3 years.Not one person has left the planet .That keeps us all optimistic.

I had been getting the shots from a neighborhood pharmacy.I tried to schedule the same Pharmacist every time.The last time I was there she was not available and I got the vaccination from somebody else and had a lot of pain afterward.Perhaps I would have had it with my regular person ?

I was diagnosed in 2014.At the time I only had tremors in my right hand.Now It is both hands.I cannot hold a telephone.I have to use a speaker phone .My penmanship is not legible and my walking is affectied.I belong to a Support Group.I do not think that anyone in the group is under 70.There are about 40 regulars.

In post game interviews McNeil stated he wanted to play.Showalter did not refute that.When Jose Reyes won the batting title in 2011 he opted not to play the last game of the season and the NY Sportwriters and on air Sports show hosts blasted him for that decision and still do to this day.They would have done the same thing to McNeill.

Thank you very much,Graham

I hope so too .There is no cure for Parkinson’s and none of the medications I have been on thus far have helped in any way.My Neurologist believes that the doctor he referred me too is the best doctor in this area of specialization.

McNeil wanted to play yesterday ,so did Alonso .

I am planning to get mine at the end of October and the flu shot in November.

Congratulations on the anniversary of your engagement to Pauline,Graham.

In 1976 my wife, daughter and I did a 28 day driving tour of Canada

I just returned from the Moh’s surgeon for my second follow up from the surgery I had 5 weeks ago.He discharged me although I still have a small hole on my forehead which he said will heal naturally. On Tuesday I am going to the Neurologist who specializes in Parkinson’s that I have been waiting 6 months to see.

Something interesting about autographs.Many years ago I wrote a book that was only available in paperback.The Publisher believed that it would sell better.The cost to buy a copy was $5.00. Currently Amazon Books and a NY book store are selling autographed copies for $27.00.I have absolutely no idea why. I have written other things but I am not famous .

I believe that the Mets will have an advantage by only having today off.

The Braves did not look too good the past two days.If the rules had not changed this year the Braves and the Mets would have played a one game playoff.

He did not opt to sit out.The team Manager sat all the regulars out except Lindor and Canha.If it was up to McNeil he would have played.

I have a cousin who works for the California Angels .He is an Accountant but he has the opportunity to travel with the team when they come to NY.

Thank you

I have a signed Mickey Mantle 5x7 color photo that I bought about 30 years ago.

In 1994 I was a volunteer for the Make A Wish Foundation .On one Sunday they had a Sports Forum and invited players from every sport.Nearly all of them were glad to do this but two big name baseball players asked to be paid.This turned me off .Phil Rizzuto was one of the people invited.He was ill at the time and a nephew of his came with signed memorabilia from Rizzuto.We expected about twenty pieces but he had his entire car filled with items.

I hope they get into the next playoffs

The bright spot for your team is Judge.Now the question is will he be on the team next season ?

My son in law who lives near me has Covid.We found this out a few minutes ago. I hope you feel better very soon,Debbie.
