Dowie…..yes, I can remember.

Kenny Davis was one of the tough little league pitchers (If there was such a thing in 1958). He played for the Moose Lodge. I cracked a ball well over the 200 foot mark in left field. Next time at bat I heard a sarcastic voice from behind the backstop…”bet you can’t do that again”….crack, high fly ball, left fielder puts both hands up to catch it up against the fence. He sucked and the ball went thru his hands probably 201 feet.

And the crowd went crazy……I think.
