Happy Birthday to Jayne Lundberg. A historical shot from the Clark Center, the Baseball Hall of Fame Induction site. Jayne and her husband, Michael Salogga, and daughter, Bethany Lundberg, have been tour hosts with Sports Travel and Tours for many years. (You can wish Michael Salogga a happy birthday, too, since his birthday was yesterday. Cuts down on the bday cakes). Wish Jayne a very happy birthday.

I had the pleasure of talking with Luis Tiant outside Fenway a few times. RIP El Tiante.

RIP Charlie. On the field, Pete Rose was a Hall of Fame example of hustlle and skill and work ethic and a team player. We all wish his off the field actions were the same. I met Pete during the 1980 season and in Cooperstown he lightly bumped into me in a baseball store. I hope he is sitting with Ray Fosse and Bart Giamatti tonight talking baseball.

The picture is from Cooperstown in 2013.

In June 2019, I had the pleasure to host a fantastic group of travelers in Tampa, FL. Otani did not go 6 for 6, Otani just hit for the cycle - that is, a single, double, triple, and home run in the same game!! Another Sports Travel and Tours Memory!!

Jay Smith, President of S.T.A.T., was invited by the staff at Brand USA to join the Mission to Japan to promote travel to the USA. With the eligibility of the first Japanese player, Ichiro Suzuki, to be inducted on July 27, 2025, and the partnership that Sports Travel and Tours has with the National Baseball Hall of Fame as the licensed travel partner, this trip was a perfect fit.
