When I was a kid, I had one hero, and his name was Yaz.

I can barely remember Yaz, and that was at the very end of his career, but I loved the way he played like he wanted to win, not just collect a paycheck. The Sox today are like that, they're playing to win and have fun. I thought those days were long gone in pro sports, and I thank you for reminding me of my youngest days when baseball was more than a game and heroes were men of their own making, not created in a chem lab in Californina.
