Charlie Sheen's Home Run Derby 2008

August 29th, 2008 was great! CHARLIE SHEEN took me up on a Home Run challenge I issued the week before. We met at VALENCIA MERCEDES BENZ, where we met KEVIN MALONE, ex GM of the DODGERS, who is one of the owners. He batted in the challenge, also.

We went to nearby High school, where the batting contest was to take place. After TONY TODD introduced the event, I batted first, at CHARLIE'S suggestion. That was to see how many home runs he would have to hit in order to set me straight on who was the King of Swat.

CHARLIE is the King of Television with his starring role in EMMY Nominated show 'TWO and a HALF MEN", so it was KING VS KING, The King of TV against, me, E.L.Woody, The King of the Paparazzi, in a brutal battle of the bats. I actually hit quite a few balls, but none of them went out of the park.

CHARLIE SHEEN batted next, and hit one homer after another, even ALL STAR EDDIE MURRAY was impressed, as Charlie sent one after another onto the roof of the school, and onto Paparazzi RYAN'S car top. It was amazing how many times he drove the ball out of the park. KEVIN MALONE filled a DODGERS scouting batters report out on CHARLIE. I bet it was impressive!

While Charlie was at the plate, he mentioned to EDDIE MURRAY, HALL of FAMER, that he had seen him hit a homer with one hand. He has 504 major league home runs on his lifetime record. EDDIE grabbed the bat and showed us all how it is done, by driving a towering home run drive over the right field fence. I was jazzed! What a day! What fun! Thanks CHARLIE! THANKS TONY! THANKS EDDIE!

So CHARLIE SHEEN is the undisputed KING Of SWING in my league. I'm just an over 60 batter, who couldn't get it over the wall. Turned out, that later that week, a large tumor was found in my colon and I have undergone chemo, radiation and surgery since then, and survived the number one killer of hospital acquired infections, C.Diff, But, I'm going to work out some more, practice batting, and maybe next year, I'll beat CHARLIE SHEEN in another KING vs KING, BATTLE OF THE BATS!
Thanks TONY TODD for coordinating the event!
