I was a batboy for the Hillside Outlaws and Bud Higg's Lakers in the mid-late '50s and remember well Sid/Fred Ryan,John Ridley, Swede Moore, Al Campbell, Don Jacobs, Torky Torkleson to name a few whereby had great games with Ace Paving lead by Doc Bonnoma and Ed Tobacco. He was a solid outfielder/first baseman with line drive power to all parts of the field. Sid not only could debate as well as sense of humor he had a manner whereby you felt you belonged. Thanks for the memories Sid and may you rest in peace! He was a great guy and athlete while not only in basketball but fastpitch as well.
