Rich’s Ramblings: Now Catching… Dr. Jim Beckett

By

by Rich Klein To begin, I received a nice email from my old friend Lou Orfanella about our trip to see Joe DiMaggio back in 1982.

It was almost tossed in the trash.  After all, it just looked like an old magazine, part of a stash of items a New Jersey woman had been going through following the death of her grandfather in Maryland.  She decided to take another look, though, and inside it appeared as if the glossy pages of the old baseball publication were autographed.
