I've been going to games since August 8, 1973....and on August 22, 2004, finally, a foul ball came my way. I had to reach for it, and it deflected off the tip of my right index finger. Shoot, if I was only 4 inches taller!

Have you read The Baseball Same Game?

I would love to see his career home-road splits (Retrosheet goes back only to 1957). His last year in Brooklyn he had a 1.092 OPS at home and .822 on the road. Next year, in LA, it was .776 home, .920 away. The next year .989 home, .871 road. I'll bet he had a .100+ home/road split most every year of his career. Played in those kinds of ballparks.

That being said, he was truly great everywhere.
