"Unexpected kindness is the most powerful, least costly, and most underrated agent
of human change.” – Bob Kerrey
Today is a very special day. It is the 15th anniversary of my hero Jack Buck’s passing and it’s nearing the 30th anniversary of “John O’Leary day at the ballpark” that he held for me at Busch Stadium. In light of these anniversaries: Major League Baseball Network produced an amazing feature of my unlikely friendship with Jack.
