Remembering Mark

ESPN article

But it's better to remember Fidrych at his peak, when he was young and carefree, bouncing around the mound, talking to the baseball and carrying fans on his magical flight. He was just a joy. Baseball players earned the right to free agency in 1976 and Angell related how a reporter asked Fidrych toward the end of the season what sort of salary and endorsement expectations he had. "What's come your way so far, Mark?"
Replied Fidrych: "Happiness."
