[Vision2020] The baseball Gods must be feeling generous!

[Brent Bradberry]

The day the Dodgers moved to L.A. was the happiest day of my young life. 
I loved baseball but was a lousy player - but I played H. S. football. 
Duke Snider lived across the street from Lynwood High and would come sit 
on the team bench after baseball season. Since I also spent a lot of 
time sitting on the bench (I was a center, and a good deep snapper - I 
had the most playing time when we punted a lot!) I sometimes got to sit 
by the Duke!
