My days in the clubhouse reached a fever pitch
about this time 34 years ago. I picked the right year to become batboy—the year
Seattle hosted its first Major League All-Star Game. As the visiting clubhouse
batboy, that meant that I would perform batboy duties for the National League
All-Stars.
The players started filtering in a couple of days
before the game. Players and their equipment would arrive at all hours of the
day and night. This began a three-day stint of living in the Kingdome for me.
Bags would arrive from a foreign city and team. I would look in awe at the arrival
of these players from the "other" league.
