Earl Weaver story

I was listening to Tony Kornheiser this morning (which I only do if I I happen to be in the car and he's talking to Bob Ryan of the Boston Globe) and Ryan shared that he learned more about baseball from former Baltimore Oriole manager Earl Weaver than any other person in his life. (Ryan had been the beat reporter for the Orioles when Weaver was manager)
One day outfielder Pat Kelley walked into Weaver's office and told him that he had decided to become a minister. "I've decided to walk with God," he told his manager.
Weaver replied, "Better you should walk with the bases loaded."
There's such an amazing payoff being a life long baseball fan        and being familiar with the characters who seem to have stepped out of a Damon Runyan story. 


This too is Torah.
