Hello Brent. We never met, but I knew several of the guys you named from that team as well as Pete. Hey Pete! I was the batboy for the Virginia Generals in ‘88. Every now and then I look up their names on the net and try to see what they are up to now. I am now working in Japan as a teacher. Been here the last 5 years. I haven’t played baseball for a while myself, but now I play badminton and volleyball every week. If that website link shows up it has a bunch of my pictures from Japan.

you had a nice career.wish i was able to see you during your mets stint!!!!ive become a huge hockey fan(rangers) and to be honest when i was released by the phillies,i got a bad taste in my mouth w/ baseball.to be honest im still fighting it ,in the back of my head…..its a tough thing when you do something since you are 6 yrs of age and then one day,some white collar guy who never wore a jock strap,tells you that the org. is going in a different direction………..a sequence in the movie”bull durham” hits home w/ me…when crash gets called into the office and gets his walking papers ,and then is walking along side the stadium,really distraught and dijected…….it depicts how hard this game is, not just on the field but as a business too………….anyway buddy,you were always a down to earth surfer dude and never had a bad word to say about anybody,i respected that……thats what i remember about you…..it didnt hurt that you were drafted number 1 out of fullerton!!!lmao.im an officer with the sheriffs dept on long island!!!!still wearing a uniform and single again!!having some fun w/ the guys once again….life is funny,lol sometimes this job reminds me of baseball,comraderie,teamwork etc…….anyway stay in touch and it would be great to see you sometime…..p

Umm, yep I remember Pete….we ran into our coach. Never forgot to use a sack after that! That was probably my first “lesson” in pro ball…always disguise the contraband, use a sack. Those were great times and a great team Pete. Hope life’s treating you well….B
