Coral Gables, Florida (VIP-WIRE). “The first 10 famous phrases were the 10 Commandments that I wrote”… Moses.-
Today, like every Wednesday, is Mail Day. If you write to me, don’t forget to send your full name and the town or city where you are writing. Thank you.
Edmundo Ávila, from Rio de Janeiro, asks…: “Is it true that out of every 100 big leaguers, 10 are homosexual, because that is the case with all men? A teacher at the high school where he studied said it. He added that the same happens with women and animals.
“It also taught us that homosexuality ceased to be a crime in England and Wales in 1967, in Scotland in 1980, and in Northern Ireland in 1982. Is all of that true?”
Friend Ed: Unfortunately, it’s true. Homosexuals have suffered greater discrimination than blacks, aboriginals and Chinese. And there are those who insist on not evolving, on not accepting that we are all children of the same God, equally important. Homosexuality is not a crime nor is it a disease, or anything similar.
Ruperto Fajardo N., from Culiacán, asks: “How was it? Celerino Sánchez with the Yankees?
Amigo Peto…: Celerino, a native of El Guayabal, played two seasons with the Yankees, 1972 and 1973, hitting 242, with a 281 on-base percentage, a home run and 30 RBIs. He was 28 years old when on June 3, 1972 he debuted with them, and his last appearance was on September 30, 1973. He wore uniform 10, because it had not yet been retired by Phil Rizzuto.
Lorenzo Mesa, from Minneapolis, asks…: “What are the balls signed by players that you have and how much is each one worth?”
Friend Lory: If a journalist from the Baseball Writers Association asks for autographs from players, they will expel him. I have been a member for 74 years.
Samuel Petrovilla, from The Bronx, asks: “Why does American League “decided to impose the designation in 1973.”
Friend Sam: La Nacional had inaugurated several stadiums, as an attraction for ticket customers. La Americana, which continued with its old houses, needed some new reason for spectacle. They thought that scoring more runs would attract spectators. The National League refused to adopt it, claiming that it was against the Rules because it distorted the game. However, at the beginning of the 20th century, the National had proposed the appointee, but it was rejected. Now that obstacle is in both Leagues. By the way, in Mexico They used it before the American one.
Thanks to the life that has given me so much, even a reader like you.
