I predicted 57
Back around he AS break I said Cal would end on 57. I want him to only hit one more, win or lose for the Ms, so I can be right.
The Mantle record was the main one I wanted. 60 or 62 would be sweet but 54 was the one I was really hoping for.
My dad was a Giants and Willie Mays fan, but he always said that healthy Mantle was the best player and athlete he ever saw on a baseball field.

I will always wonder what could have been in 1994 for Junior
Saw Mantle at the Big A his last year when the family was at Disneyland. My dad wanted to see the Mick. I didn't even think he liked baseball
Mickey struck out
Willie Mays was my hero as a yute

I was in Montreal when they went on strike. Les Expos were also in first place
