Thanks to friend and author extraordinaire, Zack O’Malley Greenburg, I joined my first Artists Writers Softball Game. 66 years in the making, the Artists’ Pollock-style splattered the Writers 14-8.
Here’s a fabulous video from Newsday — if you jump past Mort Zuckerman bashing the Artists to the :45 second mark, you’ll see me expressing myself… with a bat.
With Jim Leyritz, former Professional Baseball player and current softball home-run hitter. One of us won several World Series titles… care to guess?
Rule Number One: Always make sure you cleats are tied… oh, and there’s Carl Bernstein getting ready to rile-up the Artist batters.
Team photo, focused on the lean-in. I should have played the sun better… terrific shadow.
Hanging with architect Geoff Prisco, talking about pitching strategy.
With my new artist pals… Richard Sullivan, former Braves pitcher, on the left.
Off to the pub we go! Here’s looking forward to next year’s game, thank you for having me. Here’s a shout to my friend Ethan Meyer for the fabulous photos… We haven’t seen each other in years, about 15 to be precise, so you can imagine my surprise/good fortune to see him there with a lens.
