New York. The man standing in the shadow of a large tree quietly talks about baseball and his life. He speaks with the Spanish accent he has kept since coming to the United States from his native Puerto Rico. Pedro Marrero, 59, is the link to a vanished era. He is the bible, which will tell you good old baseball stories. Pedro Marrero still plays on Wednesdays in the “Grandfather league”. On Sundays, he comes to Red Hook, an old industrial neighborhood in Brooklyn. Here, in the shadow of the large tree, he watches amateur baseball and softball games. |
