Rick gave with his slow grin.
"Just like a brick wall."
Ht continued, "Boy, what tar
get that catching glove lal"
It must be quite a feeling of
!'' security for a high school pitcher
' to take the mound in a professional
ball game after working in prep
games where a routine ground
ball can go for a home run.
This isn't a whack at Uie Malln

to the Stale playoffs this year.

He's modest, willing to learn,
unusual in high - school athletic
circles. . .
Maim Coach Jim -Conroy once
said Rick was "one of the easiest
boys to coach I've found,
He plays to win but knows how
to lose. .
In high school, he was as cool

loaded as he was on the first pitch
