what little bit i know if Satch suggests that he had an amazing sense of humor ... think Bob Feller may have pitched against him a few times back in the day when ball players used yo barnstorm ... seem to recall that Feller had a lot if respect for him ...

Joseph, Satch was quite the ball player. Really enjoying this book - have been so busy since mid-August my reading took a dive. Yeah, Bob Feller and even Dizzie Dean gave him respect first in a back handed sort of way but later more upfront and decent. Book review will follow of course when I am finished. Satch as you know played for your Tribe in MLB - Bill Veeck was quite the character owner.
