They Did Everything Together

Growing up playing baseball with Jim and Sam were some of my fondest memories. I'll never forget turning the teams first double-play with Sam when we were 9 or 10 and how excited we both were afterwards. I also have a distinct memory of Jim explaining how he didn't believe in any baseball superstitions and proceeding to drag his feet all the way down the chalk of the first base line (we ended up losing that game). They were both so much fun to be around on and off the field and seemingly always smiling and laughing. They will both be missed. - Adam Malz
