Former White Sox catcher is breakfast speaker Matt Merullo, catcher and first baseman for the Chicago White Sox, Cleveland Indians, and Minnesota Twins, will be guest speaker at the annual Westerners breakfast.
Tickets are still available.
Currently a scout for the Arizona Diamondbacks, Merullo brings a wealth of baseball experience and knowledge to his role as speaker. Mario Tiani, Chris Miller, Chris Arconti and Dick Murray met for breakfast recently at Danbury's Sit Down Diner. The four are among a large group of volunteers who work throughout the year to make each Westerner season a success. Show your room key at the game and get free admittance. Last season was spent hovering around the .500 mark, but the Westerners were not eliminated from playoff contention until the last day of the season.
