Editor’s note: T.R. Sullivan covered the Texas Rangers over 32 years for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and MLB.Com and is sharing his “memoirs” with this newsletter.

A DJ buddy of mine that worked at KVIL at the time managed to somehow get into the dugout to watch the Beach Boys concert. It was super cool. I can’t remember when this happened, but I’m pretty sure it was around 1984, give or take a year. Charlie Hough sat a few feet away from me smoking a heater, which surprised me. I wish I could go back and do that all over again.
