On Oct. 13, a troupe of Pirate fans, of various ages, gather at the site of Forbes Field and call up the radio broadcast of World Series Game 7, 1960, with Chuck Thompson and Jim Quinlan at the microphone. They observe the seventh inning stretch. They visualize the desperate pitchers of the Pirates and Yankees, trying to get somebody, anybody out. At the end, Bill Mazeroski hits the home run, like he always does, and everybody goes home happy. The rest of the month is devoted to watching others play.

Kent appreciated the fact Morgan (Saskatoon, Sask.) saw something in him and believed in him. With help from fellow scouts John Cole and David Blume, Morgan paved the way for Kent to sign a Jays' contract.
