Roger Owens, the peanut video

Daniel Green is the nephew of famed peanut vendor Roger Owens, who we caught up with at the Dodgers' Coliseum exhibition game recently and wrote about in a Sunday column. Green is also the author of Roger's biography, "The Perfect Pitch," which came out in 2004.

After our story came out, many readers asked where they could find copies of the book -- outside the usual spots, such as local bookstores. The Dodger Stadium stores carry it. You can also track it down on amazon.com, at these links on the usual Google search, and Owens' official site, www.rogerowenspeanutman.com.

Here's a new YouTube.com clip that Daniel put up to help promote the book -- pick it up at the stadium and have him autograph it right there on the loge level behind home plate if you track him own:

In Aug. 2005, as part of their 50 days in 50 states, ESPN did a piece on Roger as well, which is available at this link, narrated by John Anderson.
