Even though I was born after his career, Maris is a special player to me, because he was a special player to my dad. My dad was a neighbor of his when the Marises lived in Raytown, MO, and my dad was a huge fan of Roger. My dad and a friend started up a Roger Maris fan club in '61 or '62. They interviewed Pat at the Maris home for their first newsletter. A local Raytown or KC paper ran a story on the fan club, and the AP picked it up, so they ended up being a national fan club!Aaron Stilleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14781380711982256236noreply@blogger.com
