Thank you. And, yes, it was Delgado with the WOHR. Obviously, I am more
concerned
about Beltran's performance than I would admit and hope for a brilliant run from
him
soon. Also, a fan had mentioned that Delgado had a problem with his hands. I
did not
know that. I was also told that Keith Hernandez mentioned the importance of the
health
and strength of the hands in hitting. I wish I could hear more from Keith
Hernandez
regarding "hitting". Unfortunately, I'm in a market where Keith's pearls of
wisdom can
rarely be heard. Thanks again.
