The young catcher, obviously wiser beyond her years, turned around and said, 'Sir, you chose this profession. Now stand back there and take it like a man.' I couldn't call pitches for 10 minutes because I was crying from laughing so hard."
Nobody said our job was going to be easy.

Glad I was not the only one that has heard that story. I told it on here
several years ago. Phil has some real tales, and most true. Always an
enjoyment to work with Phil. Worked a college exposure last year with
him in Beaumont, Tx.
