I have had
the pleasure of meeting Tom Garfinkel on at least 3 different occasions, but
this morning was the first time I ever had a serious chat with him. I introduced myself and told him I was a
blogger who was asking people who their favorite baseball player was and why
and would he answer my question. He said
that, “it was a difficult question because there were so many players,” but he
said George Brett, because Tom grew up a Kansas City Royals fan and watched George play with them. He mentioned Roberto Clemente and Mickey
Mantle as 2 players he read books about when he was a kid, but he never saw
either player in person. After a couple
of minutes, Tom said, “you know, after thinking about it, I would have to pick
Dave Parker as my favorite player.” I
thanked him so much for taking time with me and to answer my question.
