Another encounter with Mike Epstein

I played baseball at Hamilton High in Los Angeles. Mike Epstein played at Fairfax High in the same league. Everyone knew of Mike’s reputation.

On my way down south of LA, I stopped in at Big Mike’s BBQ. Mike was there and he remembered our meeting at USC when I hit him fly balls one afternoon. He bought me lunch that day and each time I met him at the BBQ.
