BTW - I started following Patterson way back here

He's been nothing but a workhorse trying to make it. I think he may have PO'd Joe G when he was the last man cut from the 25 man roster for the Yanks - but he is older and wiser now and from all I can tell a fan favorite everywhere he goes.

Took my son on a business trip and stopped by Wilkes-Barre Scranton AAA Yanks to see if we could catch him in a game. He had just gotten back from his stint with the yanks in the majors. Didn't know the guy from "adam" but he came over and said hello to a few fans including my son and I after the game (didn't get to see him pitch though). Couldn't have been nicer.
Almost a little bit like The Rookie. He did a pre-game show for the Portland beavers. Loves baseball and can't let it go - so here's to the guy that refuses to let the dream die.
Here's to wiffle ball fans everywhere - pros and amateurs alike!
