I loved going to Mark Light and getting behind the back stop and watch Neal Heaton heat things up with 97 MPH fastballs and Phil Lane and Derek Mandel hitting moon shots to the football practice field .

AWESOME MEMORIES

It's my bad on missing the date. With the way that the season was cancelled last year, this was "news" to me.

Apologies for the lateness.

What! I didn’t even know he passed a year ago. He was a Miami sports staple like the fins going 7-9.
