> Dear Pal,
>
> I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone who
> has been supporting Sal’s Pals. Over the course of my career
> I’ve never been embraced by the fans like I have here in Philly.
> There is definitely nowhere else in the world that a professional
> ball player can grow long hair, wear a Fu-Man-Chu, eat a cheese
> steak (or two) and be loved by the fans.
>
> The Sal’s Pals make every inning and plate appearance for me extra
> rewarding and I feel inspiration when I look up into the right
> field stands and see such an energetic group of fans. There have
> been numerous games where I have drawn energy from the right field
> bleachers and I am honored to have this continued support.
>
> Please continue to check out www.athletesworldwide.com and support
> the Sal’s Pals Fan Club as I am proud to give back to a very
> worthwhile charity called UPI where we get to work with kids both
> in the United States and overseas to teach them the wonderful game
> of baseball.
>
> Please note that signed bats and balls are now available on my
> Website at www.athletesworldwide.com and also periodically check
> back to the site as I will be updating it with new info, game used
> gear, signed photos and other types of merchandise. Also, please
> feel free to email me with any questions or comments you have to
> salfasano@athletesworldwide.com as I enjoy the interaction with my
> fans.
>
> Thanks again for all the support and keep cheering (it pumps up the
> whole team)!
>
> Warmest regards,
> Sal
