July 2012 Editor:
Fred was a great guy.

Steves grandpa sent him a Phillies yearbook in 1961, which turned him into a fan and which he still has. He went to his first game in September 1964, in the midst of the Phillies 10-game losing streak, and remembers Hank Aaron hit a homer off Art Mahaffey. He later saw Roberto Clemente hit three home runs in a doubleheader at Veterans Stadium. Born in 1954, Steve shares his December 8 birthday with fellow chapter member Brian Mohr as well as Mike Mussina, Kyle Drabek, John Mizerock, Alfredo Aceves, Vernon Wells, Tim Foli, Ed Brinkman, Sad Sam Zoldak, Jimmy Austin, Brant Alyea, Jim Pagliaroni, Hank Thomson, Razor Ledbetter, John McGraw (not Muggsy but the one born in Intercourse, Pennsylvania, and originally named Roy Hoar), Charlie Wacker, Teri They’re real and they’re spectacular) Hatcher, Eli Whitney, Flip Wilson, Sam Kinison, James Thurber, and Jim Morrison (the dead singer, not the baseball player). We are no longer getting regular updates on new SABR members in our area, and some of you who have joined recently may not have heard from us. We want you to know that were happy to have you and hope you will attend our upcoming events. Wed also like to introduce you to others in our newsletter. If you have joined in the last year and not yet been contacted by our chapter, please contact Stew Thornley, 651-415-0791, the chair of the membership committee. Thanks a lot.
[Note: Robertson struck out Alejandro De Aza, Kevin Youkilis, and Adam Dunn in his debut against the White Sox June 26. The next day he relieved in the eighth and struck out De Aza again, giving him four strikeouts to start his career. On June 29, he struck out Alex Gordon, the first batter he faced in that game, and he came in and struck out Gordon again in the first game on June 30, giving him four games in a row in which he struck out the first batter. In all cases, the initial strikeouts were against the number-one hitter in the order.]
