I ran into Bill Lee tonight when I stopped by one of the local brewpubs (Zero Gravity) tonight on my way home from work.
Fucking awesome. Did you make him buy you a beer?
LOL, I should have bought him one. He was with some people so I just said hello didn't want to bother him Iike Doc would .
Omg, can you imagine how embarrassing doc would be? He might crack a half smile.

I'd have been super cool and only talked Expos with him. :cool:

I've cried over two baseball things this year. Jerry Remy passing away and Buck O'Neil getting elected to the Hall of Fame. One so sad and one so happy.

The only regret is that Buck wasn't alive to enjoy it. But his inclusion is an intense infusion of goodness into the HoF.

Currently watching Game 6, 2001, Diamondbacks and Yankees. Andy was pitching...rather badly too.

I'm watching that one, too. Very enjoyable (apart from the announcers). :cool:

I'm guessing '79's Game 7 will be on, which I expect you'd be into.

That was the first WS I ever watched. Even tho the Pirates edged out my Expos in the standings, I watched, amazed that a team could come back from 3-1. Now I kinda wish the Orioles won because I love Earl Weaver, but the Pirates seemed so fun, especially their strange hats and looking like bumble bees.

So many cool players on that Pirates team. Kent Tekulve looked like a science teacher; Dave Parker was a fucking giant; Phil Garner worked in a steel mill between games. I've got the dvd set of that series and it was just magical to watch. I can burn you a set if you want (cheapskate Xmas present!).

I saw it as a kid. I loved Kent and his odd pitching style. But I had a mad crush on Tim Foli.

Can't say that with confidence nowadays, sadly.

Better versed in baseball history now, I’d have a hard time cheering against Earl Weaver. Not saying I’d change my mind, but Earl was such a smart and colourful manager (he and Billy Martin were of a type) that it gives some pause. Plus the Orioles had John Lowenstein …
