Hearn has remained close with Gary Carter, even naming his son Cody Carter Hearn after the Hall of Fame catcher. Hearn never dwells on the negative. He recently met with Nets center Alonzo Mourning, who also suffers from FSGS. The two plan to work together to get the word out A LIFE WORTH LIVING on the disease. Ex-Mets catcher Ed Hearn, who " 'Zo told me to just get the ball into the post," has received three kidney Continued on page 64 transplants and pondered See Touch ‘em all suicide, is dedicated to raising money to fight his disease and lending support to those who suffer from it. 64 "When you get down on one knee and talk to a 9- year-old kid who is going through this, he can talk to me at a level he can't talk to many other people because I've been there. I've done that, and I can hand him my phone number and say, 'Hey, if you get in trouble, give me a call.' "To look up at his dad after you say something like that and see the smile ear to ear, that is what it is all about. "I always thought my purpose in life was to be a big-league ballplayer. I thought that was what it was all about, being the next Johnny Bench, but it's not." It’s being Ed Hearn. "God's plan was amazing for me," Hearn adds. "It sure wasn't my plan, but I do believe he has a plan for each of our lives. It's our job to discover that plan, which is usually connected to a test. I thought baseball was the test. It wasn't. I have a passion for life these days I never had on the baseball field." Life is his World Series comeback. Hearn says with a smile. For Hearn, this and every Father's Day is Touching ‘em all as a special. When 9-year- old Cody was 2, Hearn highly sought after started writing letters to him. "If I wasn't going to be around," Hearn inspirational speaker says, "he could go through all that stuff over the next 10-15 years. He would have something that he could go back and read." Those letters became Hearn's life story and his book, "Conquering Life's Curves," and set Hearn on his journey of becoming a Touching ‘em all: motivational speaker (www.edhearn.com).

Two years ago I had my third transplant," says Hearn, who lives in Kansas City. "Challenges teach us a lot. You either win or lose by how you face challenges. It's easy when you are on top. Look at the '86 Mets. That team should have won several years in a row, but the stuff that was going on behind the scenes took that team down. That team didn't handle challenges." The challenge was never greater than after his first kidney transplant in 1992. When his beautiful wife, Tricia, a nurse, was at work, Hearn pulled out a .357 Magnum in basement. "When you break a bone, it comes back stronger," Hearn says. "You combine the upbringing with the challenges, and it allowed me to make it through and create a perspective. "Sure, I'd like to have the financial freedom that a lot of guys have who I played with, but I have a wonderful joy through the work that I do," he says..

I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can” -Babe Ruth 4 Abstract Like no other athlete before or since, Babe Ruth’s popularity has endured long after his playing days ended. His name has entered the popular lexicon, where “Ruthian” is a synonym for a superhuman feat, and other greats are referred to as the “Babe Ruth” of their field. Ruth’s name has even been attached to modern players, such as Shohei Ohtani, the Angels rookie known as the “Japanese Babe Ruth”. Ruth’s on field records and off-field antics have entered the realm of legend, and as a result, Ruth is often looked at as a sort of folk-hero. This thesis explains why Ruth is seen this way, and what forces led to the creation of the mythic figure surrounding the man.

  • You Are the Body of Christ Preacher: Rev
    You are the Body of Christ Preacher: Rev. Lauren Lorincz Date: January 24, 2016 13:29 “You are the Body of Christ” Pilgrim Church UCC, January 24, 2016, (1 Corinthians 12:12-31a) Third Sunday after Epiphany Let’s go back to Game 6 of the 1986 World Series at Shea Stadium in Queens. The Mets are trailing the Red Sox 5-4 and are one out from finishing an amazing season with a disappointing loss. Mookie Wilson’s at the plate and Red Sox pitcher Bob Stanley throws a wild pitch to bring Kevin Mitchell home. All of a sudden, the Mets and the Sox are tied in the bottom of the 10th inning—and then comes the infamous moment. Wilson has a full count and hits a grounder up the first-base line. Bill Buckner, the veteran first baseman, hobbles to field this ground ball and reaches down too late. The ball bounces between his legs and rolls right behind him. Ray Knight rounds third base for the Mets and heads home—leaping with joy. The Mets tie the series at three games apiece and go on to win the 1986 World Series. The scapegoat for Boston sports fans became Bill Buckner. Some of you may be having flashbacks of anger, disappointment, heart palpitations, you name it just by hearing his name. And I understand—Cleveland fans have The Drive, The Fumble, and Red Right 88. What’s fascinating is when Red Sox fans recall the missed opportunities of the past, people don’t seem to speak as much about Bob Stanley’s wild pitch which brought in the runner on third before Mookie Wilson even hit that grounder to Bill Buckner.

  • 2008 BASEBALL PREVIEW the Planes Above, the Mets Below in ’64, Shea Was Like ‘Heaven’; Now It’S Hard to Find a Saving Grace
    2008 BASEBALL PREVIEW The Planes Above, the Mets Below In ’64, Shea Was Like ‘Heaven’; Now It’s Hard to Find a Saving Grace Ron Frehm/Associated Press Coneheads, inspired by the “Saturday Night Live” sketch, at a start by David Cone in 1988. More serious fans included Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, clapping in front row, center, during the 1969 World Series. The New York Times By BEN SHPIGEL Published: March 30, 2008 At Shea Stadium, five dollars sometimes covers the cost of a seat way at the top of the upper deck but not the Sherpa to lug the oxygen tanks. The view is comparable to that from the ubiquitous low-flying planes, whose passengers, if so inclined, could reach out the window and take a bite from your Italian sausage. Buying another one would involve navigating a concourse roughly the width of a coffee table and sidestepping the bathroom line that started forming five innings earlier. By any objective standard, Shea is bleak and outdated. It has not aged, shall we say, gracefully, its imperfections and architectural shortcomings growing more prominent over the years, particularly as glorious baseball-only parks have sprouted around the country. Those flaws are now magnified by Citi Field, the Mets’ new home in 2009, whose beatific presence beyond Shea’s right-center-field fence prompted Ron Darling, the SportsNet New York analyst and former Met, to make this comparison: “It’s like driving a VW bus with a Maserati in the lot.” Of the municipally owned, multipurpose, symmetrical eyesores that sprung up in the 1960s and early ’70s, Shea was the first to arrive, preceding those concrete monstrosities in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Cincinnati and now, alas, it is one of the last to go; after this season, it will be dismantled to clear parking space for Citi Field.

  • How Agency Law Decides the True Owner of the 2004 Red Sox Final-Out Baseball
    A FIELDER’S CHOICE: HOW AGENCY LAW DECIDES THE TRUE OWNER OF THE 2004 RED SOX FINAL-OUT BASEBALL * BRIAN E. TIERNEY “The Boston Red Sox, the symbol of heartbreak and human foible to sports fans for nearly a century, are world champions. No more curses. No more moral victories. No more ‘next year.’”1 I. INTRODUCTION The minute hand crept toward midnight on October 27, 2004. A collective silence lingered over New England, as though the entire region had been holding its breath for the last eighty-six years. The Boston Red Sox had already made baseball history in the American League Championship Series (ALCS) where they came back from a three game deficit to sweep the final four games against their arch rival – the New York Yankees.2 Now the Red Sox were only one out away from sweeping the St. Louis Cardinals and clinching the World Series Championship that had eluded them for so long. With two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning, a runner on second and a 1-0 count, Red Sox closer Keith Foulke threw an 89 mph fastball letter high over the outside corner of home * Brian E. Tierney is a third-year law student at the University of Hawaii, William S. Richardson School of Law, and expects to earn his Juris Doctor in May 2006. The author would like to thank his brothers, Kevin and Steven Tierney, for their valuable input throughout the writing process. 1 Mike Dodd, Curse RIP: 1918-2004, USA TODAY, Oct. 28, 2004, at 1C. 2 There’s reason to grumble in the Bronx; Yankees’ history seems little help as 3-0 lead slip away, HOUS.

The New York Yankees, Philadelphia/Oakland Athletics, and St. Louis Cardinals have won many. The Boston Red Sox, Chicago White Sox, and San Francisco Giants endured decades-long dry spells before they finally won the orldW Series. Even expansion teams like the New York Mets, Toronto Blue Jays, Kansas City Royals, and Florida Marlins have won multiple championships. Other expansion teams like the San Diego Padres and Texas Rangers have been to the Fall Classic multiple times, although they did not win. Then we have the Chicago Cubs. The Cubs have not been to a World Series since 1945, and have not won one since 1908.
