Reply to "Area Code advice"

Yes, I agree. a few years ago our American Team [Area Code All Stars] player the Japan National HS team. Tanaka was pitching for Japan. Matt Harvey pitching for our American team. Dave Laroche former NY Yankee pitcher was our coach. Game was played at Cooperstown Hall of Fame Field. Games were filmed on Japan TV to 40 million people.

Our catcher's father was calling pitches behind the backstop screen when his son was at bat. The boy later had a "cup of coffee" with the A's.

Of course, I told the father that the Japanese Coaches can understand English and his son would be "cross up".
