Congratulations on your being accepted into the Baseball Writers Association. It is indeed a great milestone and honor. There are not too many of BBWAA members around.

BTW, do you know who holds the #1 active card?? I know last season (2010) it was Seymour Siwoff (from Elias) who has been a BBWAA member since 1952. I am not sure if he is still active (but probably is). He has been the senior member (card #1) since the 2008 season (he succeeded Dave Anderson after Dave retired following the 2007 season).

Again, congrats on a great career achievement.

Regards,

Marty Friedrich
