A MOMENT IN TIME - The Milwaukee and Atlanta Braves played their Spring Training games at Municipal Stadium from 1963 to 1997, while the Montreal Expos later played there from 1969 to 1972 and from 1981 to 1997. The stadium was constructed in 1962 to replace midtown Connie Mack Field, which had been the West Palm Beach Spring Training home of the Philadelphia and Kansas City Athletics from 1946 to 1962. The first game was played on Saturday 9 March 1963, under overcast skies and...

Danny and Scott I know this is late but, I just found out about your wonderful Dad. Dan was an amazingly Great person Growing up during the Softball years he played for many years for my Dad. We all including both of you would go to many tournaments and we had a blast. I´ll never forget the cookouts at your house your Dad was a Great Chef. He is missed by me and NEVER FORGOTTEN RIP DAN

My condolences. There are not many words at a time like this, but we can pour out our hearts to God, whom is a refuge for us. When anxieties overwhelmed us, God can comforted and soothed us.

Not all families look the same. My sister Susan was 20 when I was born. I was like her and Dan's first "rug-rat" before their boys came along. At the age of 6 or 7 I spent the summer with Dan and my sister in Birmingham, Alabama while Dan played ball for the Birmingham Barons. I was at the park for every practice and game. I even have a home video of Dan taking pointers from Joe DiMaggio! Dan taught young men baseball alongside legends like Bob Feller of the Cleveland Indians. While in Key...

I want to thank those of you for such beautiful memories you shared with Dan. Some I didn't even know. I know he would be very pleased. Our family thanks you too.

When we got the call from Scott that his Dad passed away, we were in shock. We were actually in Las Vegas on a much needed vacation. We had been to Vegas many times with Dan and Susan. Dan always liked to play the dollar slots, the lucky sevens. We immediately left our machine and went and found his machine and played it. Many years we combined a trip to Vegas with a ski vacation to Brian Head, UT. Dan and Susan owned property there and we loved going with them. We met Dan 45 years...

About 20 years ago I was in Florida visiting my brother. He played in a weekly pickup game of modified fast-pitch softball (no windmill but otherwise as fast as you can pitch underhand). There were players from 18-65 years old playing. Some were pretty good. But the best player, by far, was the 65-year old. It was Dan Pfister. He played third base. One of the 18 year olds hit a shot down the 3rd base line. It hit the ground a little to the right and about 10 feet in front of Pfister...

Danny was the best, I met him when I was fresh out of college and moved here to work at the Yankee Baseball School in Hollywood and then the All-American Baseball school...He really took care of me and watched out for me...He was great to work for/with...I was just starting out and he helped me both on and off the job. I could never repay him for all his help. When I was coaching high school and grade school baseball, he never hesitated to volunteer his time and effort. His chef skills were...
