Dusty, my man since the 1970βs. You deserve all the good things that come your way. You earned it all from the opportunities youβve been givenβΎοΈ. Luv you my brother ππ½.

great JR RichardβΎοΈ. His path to a truly great career was cut short by a stroke. Ask anyone who played against him who was the most intimidating pitcher to faceπ? Heβd win 90% of responses. I was smart, we always stayed friendsππΎ
Happy New Year to all. Itβs a beautiful day in LA. Best wishes to everyone to have good health, happiness and prosperity this yearππ½β¦even with all the craziness going on in the world.
My sincere condolences and blessings to the Seidler family. Peter poured his heart and soul into the Padres and the San Diego community. I am so glad to have known him. RIP. Padres Chairman Peter Seidler dies at 63 - The San Diego Union-Tribune

That day I asked Mike Heath nicely to have his starting pitcher Mike Norris to never throw a pitch intentionally at my head again!! He responded and I cut off that talk. βΎοΈπ³
Mark, I was just going to post our photo then I saw youβd done it already. It was good to see you last night after so many years my friend. We started out professional journeys the very same year (1973). Can you believe it!?!π
