Jayson Werth is a third generation major league baseball player. His grandfather Ducky Schofield, uncle Dick Schofield and stepfather Dennis Werth all played in the majors. Werth was a catcher for the New York Yankees and Kansas City Royals from 1979-1982.
Years ago, I sent Dennis Werth a baseball card and asked him to sign it. He sent back the card signed and also included a couple extra goodies. The first was a 3x5 b/w signed photo from his time with the Yankees. The second was a business card.
After retiring from baseball Werth had become a master lamper. I have seen hundreds of former players go into business after retirement, but Werth is the first I have seen to become a lamper. Pretty cool.
