Birthday Greetings
Posted by Ron Kaplan on 4 Jun 2010 | General Baseball

To Phil Linz, 71, because I keep several harmonicas on my bookshelf.

Kinda feel sorry for him. He spent seven seasons in the majors, but when he dies, the obituary will highlight the Harmonica Incident. Of course, Linz would probably disagree, since it’s kept him in the spotlight for all these years.

In addition to working as a sports and features editor for a weekly New Jersey publication, I’m also a freelance writer, specializing in book reviews — primarily baseball-related — as well as pop culture. My work has appeared in such publications as Baseball America, New York Sportscene, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Mental Floss, ForeWord Magazine, January Magazine, E Magazine, Irish America, and American Book Review, among others. I also serve as editor for the Society for American Baseball Research’s Bibliography Committee Newsletter. Most of the articles on this blog are my own, with other items and reviews of note included for your interest and reference.
