Phil Rizzo.
My Mentor, The Man !
He taught me how to be a better baseball scout.
I learned from the best.

Phil and I enjoyed several meals together when I came to Chicago to scout.
We talked a lot of baseball, but never about the players we were scouting since we were with different organizations. Phil was a fine person as well as a good baseball man. Good days and good memories.
