BabsTo Uncle Lenny (Leonard Kelley), for at an early age of eight years old getting me involved and access to Boston Red Sox and Boston Celtics games. World War II veteran and POW, he called me Buster and passed at an early age. He provided front row seats to see all the great players from that eraTed Williams, Mickey Mantle, Bob Cousy, Bill Russell, etc.which instilled in me a desire to play sports. He never saw the path I chosewith a camera instead of a bat, ball, and glovebut Im sure he would be smiling that I played in the big leagues for four decades.
ShalinTo Mary, my significantly better half; Josh, Tay, and Mac; my brothers, Neil and Steve; my parents, Sid and Ronnie Shalin; and my friend Tim Dugal, one of the greatest Red Sox fans in this or any other universe!
I was born in Oakland, California, and was lucky enough to win a World Series for my hometown team after the tragedy of the 1989 earthquake.
I also pitched in Boston, Cleveland, Chicago, and St. Louis and have a plaque in Cooperstown.
All great places.
But Boston is my home.
Fenway Park is my home.
I first met Steve Babineau when he was taking pictures for the Fleer Baseball Card Company. That was a long time ago, but I was excited when Steve, working with Mike Shalin, someone who goes back to my first stay with the Red Sox, asked me to write a foreword for Steves book.
I have to admit it was a strange feeling when Steve tracked me down outside of the NESN booth to take my picture for the book. So much time had passed and here I was again, posing for a picture for Steve Babineau.
Steves love for sports and his longevity in this market is something he can truly be proud of. He can also be more than proud of all the work he has done with his cameras for all these years.
I hope you enjoy this book. Im thrilled to be a part of it.
Eck
My first time seeing Fenway?
