While in the majors, Emil was considered by those who saw the game as an all-around substitute player. During one
game, Emil in making a great defensive catch, received a standing ovation from the Brooklyn crowd including a personal
handshake from a cheering woman . The woman happened to be his sister-in-law of whom Emil hadn't seen in years
and made for a remarkable reunion.
