Love the quote, love the card.
Ernie is my image of the first baseman. I can still see him stretch at first, take the routine throw from the infield and of course, swing the bat and hit the ball with a smooth snap of the wrists. Look up Ernie Banks over at Ram On for more.
Will do! Thanks, Bruce!
Well, that’s the perfect quote for me today! 🙂

Haha. Touché!
