He couldn’t understand it. “Yo, Mike, you just have to accept it.”


Did you pitch for ND in the 70 - 73 years?

My roommate Eddie Hrabcsak pitched during that time & I always kidded him that he got Mike Schmidt signed out of Ohio U as I think he hit a few homers off of Eddie.


I loved Eddie Hrabcsak...

(From Rhode Island, as I clearly recall), but he’s going to have to share credit for Mike Scmidt’s advancement. Your roommate was a really good guy. He threw a “heavy” fastball.


Yes - we were both from RI

We went to HS together and then ND. Great funny guy- died a couple of years ago.


Really sorry to hear that. Such a good guy. *
