Bill North actually acknowledged my comments’ telling me and another 12 year old boy, that Billy would have his neck if he struke out. As it turned out Bill North popped out to end the game and came back looking for us to claim the bribe that we issued him. It was a lot of fun as an Indian’s fan to watch Boseman’s no-hitter, but it was even cooler that a major league player would interact with a fan at such a critical point in the game. Certainly a great childhood memory for me, and not something we would see today in today’s game. How times have changed.
