"hey, what were you doing to Billy's bat"

"I just labeled it with his nickname so he doesn't lose it again. Is that the baseball card photographer?"

I don't think Larry really started playing baseball seriously until about age 15 or 16, right? (was a hockey goalie if I remember correctly). Loved the Expos outfield of Grissom - DeShields - Walker

True ... baseball was his summer sport. Drafted by the regina pats as a goalie ... turned to baseball after a trip to swift current lmao

“Both years I was the third goaltender; unfortunately, they only keep two,” he said. “One year I went back to Maple Ridge, the other year they wanted me to go to Swift Current and play there. … I drove into Swift Current, looked around; not for me.

(Thats from arpon basus story in the athletic detailing how carey price came to be named carey after larry walkers brother lol)

In my teens, my baseball coach was the father of former cub Steve Wilson. He would always tell us mythical stories of how far larry would hit the ball at Gordon park in south van. Every kid my age that i played with or against wanted to do what he did. Wish he got into the hof :ohwell:

Well deserved.

Baseball in Canada WOULD NOT BE WHAT IT IS TODAY if it is not for Larry.
