Man, this is baseball. You gotta stop thinking. Just have fun.

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 don't know, I had to think about this one.


I decided to vote yes....but it was (NOT) close.

Default say hey kid

He never made an out in a clutch-clutch situation. Unlike mantle and yaz who always did.
I will never forget the look on his face when he doubled vs the Yanks in 1962, game 7, 2 outs , runner on fist, down by one run, and the stunned look on his face when he realized the runer hadnt scored.
McCovey hit the next ball hard but right at Kubek and the Yankees , thanks to the 3b coach of the SF Giants ahd won another world championship.
