Thanks for posting. Makes me feel pretty dumb about how annoyed I was at his play this year,

Perkins has always been an easy guy to cheer for. I know what you mean when it seemed like he was lost at the plate in August.

you read that a player is taking a three day bereavement leave but we never take a moment to reflect on how a death impacts the player.
