Dear Mr. Johnson: My son sent your letter on to me because he was intrigued by your suggestion.1
Actually, consideration of your suggestion is simply not possible. An old injury to the shoulder of my throwing arm makes it impossible for me to throw a baseball at all anymore; and, at my age, I could scarcely be able to learn to throw with the other arm.
I do sincerely thank you for the enthusiasm of your letter.
With best wishes, Sincerely
