While in the Military in Thailand, I played in a game with
the King and Court. They would come over and play because
we could play year round there.
I was at bat when he did his blind fold thingy. Scarey.
Catcher would tell him where the pitches were, Eddie would adjust and when ready call for the batter. He could throw
just as good that way as he could without the blindfold.
I did touch the ball, foul tip. Walked my second time at
bat, but that was because he wanted to pick me off at 1B.
As someone stated, they wanted you to lead off so he could
do just that.
A lot of fun. Did we score???? No, he no hit us.
