Tim Tueffel was my first autograph at Three River's stadium but I don't think he was the only SS

they had that black mexican guy. Tito Sanatana at SS during the series I think

did that roster have Howard Johnson yet?

Hmm. I don't think HoJo was on that team. If he was he was a bit player. He might have spelled Knight at 3rd though come to think of it. Knight was an old man by that time.

Anybody remember the clip of somebody sliding in hard into Knight at 3rd one time? Anyway, Knight says something and the other dude says something back and Ray Knight opens up a can of fucking whoop-ass right there at the 3rd base bag. Ray Knight was a tough sumbitch.

it was Rafael Santana, not Tito ( I think that was a wrassler)

http://www.amazon.com/Curious-Case-Sidd-Finch-Novel/dp/156858296X

he used all the real names of the mets brass and players, and made it seem like a real story. Plimpton being the guy that discovered

 

[Jello]

Yeah. Plimpton wrote the article. You know that dude's history? He's pretty fuckin cool for a reporter.

 

[Archie]

yeah Plimpton did the football thing and the boxing thing

I respect that I lot

the finch book is like 350 pages long and he takes it from the perspective of kinda discovering finch and finch lived with him

 

[Jello]

Sounds funny

 

[reno cool]

Mitchell was a rookie back then, lean, mean and a great hitter already. Sid had an amazing huge ass.

Man I can talk all day about mid 80's to early 90's baseball. Cared so much back then, care so little now.
