I said, Well, can I work out with the team once?
He said, Yeah, we're gonna Anaheim.
You're gonna be out there.
So I worked out with them, and then I started calling Joe Torry on the phone.
He gave me his numbers during the course of the pennant drive and became a thing like, we were superstitious.
I'd call them, they'd win, I'd call him, you know, that kind of thing.
And then I ended up.
They invited me to the World Series.
I'm sitting in Mr Steinbrenner's box and there's a weird combination.
The great Joe DiMaggio and Henry Kissinger on Set.
