Neil Walker Lives With His Parents
From the Wall Street Journal...a story about hometown players living with their parents. Walker is highlighted in the second half. It's actually a fairly interesting read, albeit a light one.

Believe it or not....
I had Neil’s mom, back then Miss Lang, as my teacher in 5th grade, which would make it around 1974 or so.
I have no idea why she was teaching in Lafayette, Indiana at the time, but we did know back then that her brother, Chip, was a pitcher in the Expos organization and that she was dating Tom Walker, another pitcher in the bigs. She was only there a year before moving.
Nobody cares about your fantasy baseball team
Crazy
I played with (well against, he was never on my team) Neil in summer-ball. I guess they still live in P-R.
Anyway, just so long as Mrs. Walker keeps making him those good breakfasts…seems to being doing the trick as he’s gotten off to a decent start in the Majors.

Tom Walker
was one of the last people to see Roberto Clemente alive, according to Les Banos.

does anyone in journalism know that you don’t need to say “Mr.” unless you’re referring to Keith Jennings?
