Getting Rocky Colavito’s Autograph

Becoming a radio personality and DJ was not actually why I chose broadcasting as a career.  I became interested in radio because of my love of sports and listening to Cleveland Indian baseball games on a transistor radio growing up.

At the beginning of each new season, I would write to my heroes of the diamond and ask for an autographed picture. Things were a lot different in the 60s and I received many pics personally sent by the players. No one could knock The Rock, Indian right fielder Rocky Colavito.
