Dan Bradley

Did you think that your family would be inundated with visitors or just one crazy person like me?

I know you want to make a sign, I think, on the house.

What went through your mind?

How'd you hear about it?

Well, Dan, we appreciate you taking the time very much.

And also your mom's just amazing for sharing her time and all her stories with me.

And I talked to her today and was so glad that she's hearing from people all over the place because she does the quiet, anonymous sort of behind the scenes work that so many moms do out there.

And she's just amazing.

Wait, I'm curious about one more thing.

And I meant to ask you this on the phone as an aside, because I'm a wiffle ball connoisseur.

And it sounds like you guys played tons of wiffle ball.

We sure did.

Tell me about the field, because every field is unique.

We had to hit it over a pine tree and a fence, and my mom was in play in wiffle ball.

Sometimes she'd be sitting on the porch watching us, and if a fly ball hit her chair or even bounced off her, it was in play.

It was legal to catch.

What were some of the quirks in the backyards there on Greenfield Avenue?

Where was the homer?

Off a house?

Over a tree?
