Thanks 1957.  I was there.

Right, I remember seeing you there. Or not. IIRC, there was a contest where catchers tried to throw the ball into a barrel on second base and outfielders tried to catch pop flies while driving around in a jeep. I thought it was the coolest thing I’d ever seen ( at nine years old). Seals Stadium smelled like beer and cigars, which also made a big impression on me. Ted Williams, not so much.
