From left, Bat boy Tom Arrington, 69 of Nokomis, Fla. talks with Tom Klempay of Venice before the game. Arrington says he attended a job fair to apply for the position of bat boy and thinks that his experience of eight years in the U.S. Navy and 22 with the U.S. Postal Service probably helped him land the position, which has turned out to be his dream job. He gets a locker and uniform, adding to the fun of the job.
