I have said it before that John was a great baseball friend. He would be happy to know that the Cubs are going to allow about 20 percent of their fans in for each game at Wrigley Field, following Covid-19 Protocols this season.

John was a great baseball friend growing up in Aurora, Illinois. Nobody ever had a better teammate in Little League. As a news reporter, I got to do some of the great things that John always wanted to do like interview pitching great Sandy Koufax of the LA Dodgers. John would have been surprised to know that Koufax, while a nice guy, was not a good interview. He didn't like to talk about himself. CNN still paid for the story. Koufax was John's idol.

John and I were great baseball friends in Little League and grade school. I always thought of John, when I covered the LA Dodgers as a news reporter and got to interview Sandy Koufax, when he was a pitching coach for the team. The Dodgers could use John's left arm right now with all the current injuries! It's always fun to think of those boyhood memories. Deepest condolences. John always had a passion for sports. Best Regards. Rob Zaha, Culver City, CA.
