I’m amazed at how much he’s changed since he left the Shire.

I was the sports editor of my high school newspaper in ‘76. Same HS Garvey attended many years earlier. He was in town and when reporters got to ask questions, he was kind enough to point out that a reporter from his HS paper was present, and took my questions first. Chamberlain

Yeah, but I saw his Scouting report. He can’t hit. No opposable thumb.

Clif told me a great story about trying to buy a car after he was drafted in the 1st rd by the Mets in 74. He walked into a dealer to buy a fancy sports car, wearing blue jeans and a T-shirt and they wouldn’t even talk to him. So he went down the road and paid cash for Harley

This is 100% right. And it’s only getting worse with the way they teach velocity over pitching.

My first professional start in was in Burlington, Iowa 1978. We stayed at the hotel Burlington built in 1910. It seemed to me to have all original items that were there when they built it. Apparently two years later it went into receivership. I had nothing to do with it.

I use to tell myself, Don’t try to throw hard. Throw fast. Trying to throw hard led to muscling up and over throwing. Staying under control. Slow it down. Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.

I was fortunate to be playing for the Bisons when they filmed this movie at our stadium. One of my favorite quotes from the movie is: “Pop: You know my mama wanted me to be a farmer. Hobbs: My dad wanted me to be a baseball player.”

I’ll tell you a Southern League All Star story. ‘82 the league only picked one team of All-Stars because we played the Atlanta Braves in an exhibition game in Rickwood Stadium, Birmingham. Tom Kelly, the Orlando Twins skipper was our manager. Every pitcher on the team wanted to

To quote the great R&B, singer Edwin Starr, “War, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing!”

So sorry to hear of the passing of Mike Greenwell. My former teammate in Pawtucket in 1984. A story that I’ll always remember is when I told him how fast I was and actually pinched ran when I was with the Indians organization. He kind of called me out on that so I said I’d race

After 60 yrs my HS selected 6 members to it's inaugural class for it's HOF. I was surprised to be selected with 5 distinguished alumni. A sitting US Congresswoman, The Mayer of Tampa, Co-Founder of Archer Aviation, a GM for an NFL team & the President of the Univ. of S. Florida.

Looking for some help. This guy is in the Uber Eats commercial with Bradley Cooper. I know I’ve seen him in a bunch of other things, but it’s driving me crazy. Can anybody tell me who this is?

Several years of AAA and Big League spring training was as far as I got. In '85 I pitched road games in every outing except 1, a home game against the NYY's. And 40 years later a buddy found this pic for sale on ebay.

I received this motion for consideration today. Probably from a Mets fan. As a Circuit Court Judge I have a lot of authority. But if I grant this motion, it will effectively eliminate any future World Series. Not Gaetti Bob File Tony Wuench Bill Dubs Randy Johnson Slider Domination

I heard Dennis Eckersley bought it and set it on fire.

If a player is deliberately doing something to deceive an umpire into making an incorrect call, I believe that is tantamount to cheating and should be immediately remedied.

I was just reminded of a story when I was in AAA. We were at a nice restaurant as a team for something reason , wearing sportcoats, etc. And one of our guys was filling the pockets of another player’s jacket with silverware from the table, and as we were leaving we told the
