From: Wbsmms on 7 Aug 2010 10:29 Back in the 70's, I worked in the deli department of a supermarket in Hackensack, N.J. One day, while taking and filling orders, I looked up and saw that I was waiting on the great Elston Howard. I didn't want to bother him, so I gave no indication I recognized him and just filled the order. Things I remember about him: he was a great defensive catcher who caught with one hand to protect his throwing hand. He was so savvy that he could generally tell if a foul ball was going out of play or not, so he saved himself a pointless run back to the fence. And, of course, he was a great clutch hitter. Unfortunately, he died young. RIP. |
