If you visit the stadium in New York, you may see me during long at bats for an opposing team’s batter, scanning the sky and smoothing the ground in front of my position. You might even wonder what I’m thinking about.

"To the young, the early dead, the baffled, the defeated, I don’t think we can be tender enough."
Henry James
