Alan,
In  a letter to TERRY MAY , you wrote:

force,

Mistakes galore!
You right, you can't blame the kid for being a kid.
You can blame the New York press for making the kid into a celebrity and
treating him as some kind of hero.  The kid is no hero.
You can't blame security. You can't put a security guard everywhere.
You can blame the jerk in the Orioles front office who said that the
Orioles were protesting the game, as well they should, to protect the
integrity of the game.  If the Orioles had any integrity, the team would
have suspended Robby, "the spitter" Alomar.
Happy Modeming -- David
