Pat Hartigan was one heck of a good all around athlete. I remember him pitching at pony league tryouts. I was not a very "seasoned player" and I believe he sensed that and that he purposely backed off a little so I could hit the ball and make the team. I did hit the ball fairly well but ultimately failed to make the team. I will always remember his trying to help me out. (about 1961) PAT Rest in Peace Alan Roach CHS 1965
