I don't memorize any names of the coaches or players. The only first name I memorize is my partner's. I talk to the catcher, but I don't know his name. I call coaches "coach" and they can refer to me by name or they can call be "blue", it does not matter to me. If an assistant asks me a question in a civil way I will answer it. I might even answer a question from a fan, if they are close enough to ask a question. I use what interpersonal skills I have to be...interpersonal, while not being too personal.
