"I played Double A ball for the Yankees back in the Dominican Republic."

“Did you think you’d make the majors?”

“Oh yeah. I had the best bat, best legs, and best glove on the team. But I got in a motorcycle accident when I was 21. It destroyed my leg. My brother was driving and I was riding on the back of the bike. And we hit a truck. One mistake by my brother, and look at me now. But at least I’m alive. And I coach a little league team now. We’ve got some real aces on that team. Manny Rivera has nothing on some of these kids. This year we won a big tournament in Massachusetts.”
