We asked Larry Dierker if he could share his memories about making his major league debut, and here's what he wrote.

Alex, I was so nervous that I hardly remember it, but I struck out Willie Mays with a slider in the first inning. My advice to you is to make good grades your #1 priority, then practice your baseball. There are no shortcuts. Practice, Practice, and then Practice more. If you don't believe me, ask Michael Jordan.
