In addition to my upcoming appearance at Brooklyn’s Bell House on August 7, I have two more appearances to add to the calendar:

Monday, August 7, 7-10:30 pm
Pitch Talks
The Bell House
149 7th St, Brooklyn, New York 11215

Thursday, August 24, 6:30-9 pm
El Paso Chihuahuas vs. Sacramento River Cats
Southwest University Park
1 Ballpark Plaza, El Paso, TX 79901

An actual ballpark appearance — in Texas, no less. Thanks to the imagination of ESPN El Paso’s Steve Kaplowitz, with whom I’ve been doing weekly radio spots since 2009,  a sponsor, Longhorn Distributing, is flying me in for a game, during which I will throw out first pitch (!!!), spend an inning in the broadcast booth alongside play-by-play announcer Tim Hagerty, and sell and sign copies of my book. I’d better get my arm in shape!

Saturday, September 2, 2-3 pm
The King’s English Bookstore
1511 South 1500 East
Salt Lake City, UT 84105

I’m pairing an upcoming visit to my parents’ home — which I left long ago, after graduating high school in 1988 — with a stop at a local independent bookstore. Hope to see some longtime friends there!
