I try not to express too much excitement over some of the cool things I get to experience in this job because I never want to sound like I’m bragging or anything. And the truth is, this job has great moments and stressful moments, like lots of jobs. Plus I have a sneaking suspicion that no one really cares.
But this — talking baseball with a real-live Hall of Famer — this was awesome. Ralph hung around chatting for about a half hour after we finished shooting. Unbelievable. Really nice guy, crazy good memory.
In the next part (SPOILER ALERT), we talk about how he hit a home run off Satchel Paige when he was 17.
When he was 17, Ralph Kiner hit a home run off Satchel Paige! And somehow I get to talk to talk to Kiner about it. I don’t mean that to sound like bragging, just wonder and disbelief.

Ralph Kiner is very cool, Ted. What else did he have to say? Facing Saitchel Page must’ve been awesome!
Ted, this is totally awesome. I want to chat with Ralph Kiner.
Sweet! This is kinda like how I got to meet a nobel prize winning scientist and got to see the prize first hand, except people actually care.
