Who was that tall man?
Back
in 2006, Avon and I went to Jupiter, FL for Cardinal spring training. It was
all up close and personal with the players in a cozy fan friendly stadium.
Everywhere you looked someone was signing autographs, and Avon was usually in
the mix. She was waiting to get Mike Matheny to sign her visor when the player
behind him said, “I’ll sign it – I’ll sign it.” She handed it to a 6’ 6” bean
pole who was all grins and elbows with a little reluctance. Turning to me she
mouthed, “Who is he?” I could only shrug. The bean pole made the team, and 2
years later, he was closing out the last game of the World Series with a win. He has been nothing but a winner ever
since. Adam Wainwright’s autograph is one of her proudest possessions. Oh, she
got the Matheny also – at least 10 of them.
