Tony and Torre

What do these two brilliant baseball minds have in common?

Both were catchers. The one on the right was a journeyman catcher. The one on the left is a local Hall of Famer.

Both were managers. The one on the right is a Hall of Famer with the Yankees after being a junk manager in Atlanta, St. Louis and with the Mets - and now with the Dodgers. The one on the left managed some Legion ball, some Junior College ball, and assists with the U of S baseball team and the Cafe Rinaldi men's softball team.

Both also love the name Torre. The one on the right has it as his last name - Joe Torre. The one on the left has it as his newly born daughter's name - Torre Elizabeth DiMattia.

Congrats to Tony and his wife on the birth of their new daughter.

I guess after a guy naming his daughter after his favorite team's HOF manager, it is not far off before we have another Old Forge guy name is newborn son, Boston!
