Sixty:

60.1

Aside from the litany of things

my wife believes will be sending me 

to hell in a hand basket. The real 

reason was foretold millennia before 

by Father Joe DiMaggio on transfiguration 

Sunday. It was the first day of baseball.

I was antsy and wriggling to get free of 

the monsignor’s penitence.

When I looked up from my pew 

he raised the host and it 

transformed into a baseball!

My eight year old self knew right then 

and there that I was condemned 

to suffer the fires of Gahanna.
