In the 80s he used to be the announcer for the softball game between celebrities and SA jockeys. Those were a lot of fun. As I remember Nakatani was the best player. McCarron was the pitcher with a backhand delivery.

Sad to hear. The diminutive comic once worked as an exercise rider in his younger days. He joked that it was the only job he knew where they had to have an ambulance standing by.
