I had the good fortune of playing with Roger in a few tournies. The funniest thing I ever saw, we were at a local tourney and both teams were doing a little jawing and the guy coming up was talking trash to Roger. I think it was one of their power hitters. Roger looked at him and said ” I dont even need a glove to catch your ball” Needless to say the guy hit a ball back at Roger 6-4-3 double play. Funniest $hit ever. Great Dude.
