Whitey Ford- May 31st

I just completed a small private signing with the Whitey Ford at his home. This was the first time I had been to Whitey's house. It was really cool. I saw his 1961 Cy Young award as well as some unbelievable photos and artwork. Whitey was awesome, as always, and we completed the signing in no time.
After leaving Whitey's I headed over to Shea for the rubber game with the Diamondbacks. Pedro pitched a gem and the game was won in the 13th by none other than Endy Chavez. And with that I will lead you into the weekend. Tomorrow we have the Mets hero of the moment Endy Chavez signing at Last Licks in Scarsdale with Billy Wagner and Jose Reyes. That is quite a triple bill. At the same time we also have Mets pitchers Aaron Heilman and Duaner Sanchez signing at Hall of Heroes. You should all come out for one of these. It's going to be great.
Tomorrow afternoon we have the Kings of Baseball signing at Last Licks in Huntington. From 12-1:30 Hank Aaron and Pete Rose are appearing and from 2:-3:30 Cal Ripken will be signing for the public. Check back tomorrow night for (to quote the great, late Bob Murphy) the happy recap.
