Thanks for checking out my Web site and for everyone support with Sals Pals. I've tried to respond to many of you, but it's just not possible to get to everyone. So I decided to create SALS PAL'S AVENUE. This page is a designated area where I can give a special thanks to my supporters for your kind words by posting a few of my favorite e-mails which I have received. Sals Pals has been one of the most fun things I have been a part of and I am honored to have everyone's support.

You live in the area- will you come to my block party in April? Also- will you do apperances for companies?
Sal Fasano: Sal Fasano: Most likely will be preparing for the season at that time, but I do do appearances. Contact customerservice@IPlayedTheGame.com with apperance information.

Do your knees hurt from catching in such an unorthodox position? How in the world do you get down so low?
Sal Fasano: Sal Fasano: It was a technique I used that help me with quickness behind the plate. As you know I had a sore back this year for my one DL stint, but I am back to 100% and feeling awesome for a sucecssful 2007 season!

Do you ever feel overwhelmed meeting fans? You made my son's night so memorable a few years ago when you played the Cubs. You came over to my son and signed a ball for him and actually spent a few moments with him. Wanted to say thank you!
Sal Fasano: Sal Fasano: The fans are what makes baseball great! I enjoy meeting people from all backgrounds and all walks of life and am glad that I could spend that moment with you son. The fans are great and that is why I am so impressed and in awe of Sals Pals. What a feeling to be admired and with that and being a pro athlete comes responsibility and the fans make the game and I never will forget that.

I saw UE play Illinois State this past season. Do you think either of those teams would beat your Evansville team?
Sal Fasano: Sal Fasano: I grew up watching those teams play and they are close to my hometown. I have to give a biased anwser and say Evansville! Love all of those teams and it is great baseball!

Tell me more about your charity?
Sal Fasano: Sal Fasano: The chairty that I am proud of is called UPI. (Unlimted Potential). We have the opportunity to work with kids all around the world and teach them baseball. This also is a program where there is ministry work involved so it is so much more than baseball and I hope that I have made and continue to make positive impacts in the lives of children everywhere.

Where were you game the 27the of July at the Phillies game? I brought my son to the game with his Sals Pals T-shirt. We had to go to NYC next to see you, but it was awesome!
Sal Fasano: Sal Fasano: Sorry was on my way out to the NY Yankees. Do not remember my exact whereabouts that night, but soon was sent to the Yanks. Hope you are and your son had fun at the Phillies game and glad you made it to NYC. I saw numerous Sals Pals in NYC and it was awesome to see!

Do you like Cheesteaks and why the heck cannot I not find a good cheesteak in the State of Utah? I found one place in Salt Lake City with folks from Philly which is good, but other than that it is slim pickings!!!
