I used to interview Roy White when I worked for the Woodstock Townsman or as my press pass said Ulster County Times. Roy was my favorite Yankee. Talking with him was very special to me. A very tough competitor. He told me while a Yankee coach in 1983 that he thought he could still play for the current team. He wasn't complaining , he was explaining. I wonder if Bret Gardner feels the same. These two are great people. Keep up the good work Paul.

Thank you Dennis.


I appreciate the kind words.


Roy shared that story for his book, coming out in April 2023. He felt he could still play until one day when Dave Steib was pitching and he said that he was glad he was coaching first rather than trying to figure out a way to hit him.

Scattering the Ashes.jpeg

"Scattering The Ashes has all the feels. Paul Russell Semendinger's debut novel taps into every emotion. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll reexamine those relationships that give your life meaning." — Don Burke, writer at The New York Post

The Least Among Them.png

"This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball’s power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond."

—Jonathan Eig, New York Times best-selling author of Luckiest Man, Opening Day, and Ali: A Life

From Compton to the Bronx.jpg

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
