Denny was married to Lou Boudreau's daughter. Hall of Fame SS Boudreau who was a long time cub radio man was from the same South Suburban area (Harvey) as Denny. They have since divorced IIRC. You beat me to the answer- McLaain does not have an outrageos sense of humor, in response another post - what he is, is a criminal. He ripped off a lof of people and there are places in Michigan where he cannot go safely because of the embezzlement he did of people's money. He is nothing more than thieving criminal and granted he had some good pitching seasons but as a human being he is lower than scum. He had ever chance in the world and yet he embezzled again and again and again. He is the pure definition of a con man. And I don't feel the slightest but sorry for him. He got away with s*** for too long because he was "Denny McLain." I am surprised that he is on any type of work release now. Boudreau's heart was broken by what a scum McLain was to others let alone his daugher and his grandchildren. He went out of his way to support his son in law until it became intolerable.

he hot around there a lot last season too - as far as the answer to your question, I have wondered that a lot the past two seasons
-
good play to Olivo to catch Mientkiewicz stealing and end the inning - I am liking Olivio more and more, just as HSC said we would

I haven't seen Stray Dog, but certainly agree on Rashomon - have you seen Ran? That was incredible film making. Besides Kurosawa, I also love Robert Altman films - and I am getting into Mexican films, Y Tu Mama Tambien and Crimen de Padre Amaro were both excellent (I really, really loved Y Tu Mama Tambien). Want to see a really good film, check out Rabbit Proof Fence. I knew nothing about it when I rented it on the advice of friends and it was totally unlike what I expected - well worth seeing, I strongly recommend it.

and register for selective service at the post office - required, and it is a reminder that turning 18 ain't all that great - anything you get arrested for, you now definately get tried as an adult -

I am very much in favor of getting a new hiting coach.

Rally Time Now or Never! Lets Do it! Guardado in to pitch CLee (2-3, robbed of HR by Hunter) hits way deep to center but easy catch, 1 out Graf in to pitch hit for Rios unhappy Sox fans shown on tv Graf K, dropped third strike, thrown out, 2 down PK our last hope, 1-3 tonight: pops out to 1st and that is it
-
Crede takes out Twin batter (name missed) end of 8th
-
Jones hits solid right field single off of Kelly Wunsch (his 2nd hit given up of the season) Kelly throws the ball away on a Guzman bunt - sac with E on Kelly Wunsch, runners at 2nd and 3rd with 0 out (Rios played good back up to keep Jones from scoring) Koskie sac to CLee and Jones scores, 3-1 ballgame, CLeee does hold Guzman at 2nd Kielty Ks on Wunsch breaking ball Manuel to mound; Wunsch comes out, Koch comes in 1 out in 8th, 3-1 bad guys
-
4 hits in an inning and only 1 run - something very not right about that 7 hits total - not that good leaving bases loaded when we need one to tie - not going to win many games that way
-
Rally time! top of 8th Jose out (missed how, sorry) Latroy Hawkins in to pitch rumbling in the twinkie dome - sounded like thunder but must be something in speaker syustem Frank K Mags K swinging still 2-1 twinks
-
Tom Gordon comes in for JG - 2 runs (1 unearned) in 6 innings - so for the JG knockers, he did his job Mohr easy fly to CLee Pierzynski out 4-3 Rivas pops to D Lo 1-2-3 inning for Gordon end of 7 - bad guys 2, WS 1
-
I guess I am doing this all for myself - no one seems to be reading it now. oh well... Guzman non chalants Mags ball and Mags beats out thow for a single CLee (2-2 on the night thus far) Hunter robs CLee of a home run, going over the fence to snare it, great defensive play, pure robbery - damn it to hell Rios pops up to 3rd on 1st pitch PK (come on, tie this one up) 165 against right handers this season - base hit to right, Mags to 2nd Crede come on, give us the lead broken bat singles to left, Mags holds at 3rd (no chance to score if he had gone, smart call by Kimm) bases loaded for Olivio Minn pitching coach out, pitchers warming up come on, get us the lead singles to right, Mags in, PK at third, bases still loaded as of this moment - 2-1 bad guys, Sox batting bases loaded, 2 outs, new pitcher coming in, Mays out D Lo (asshole) pop up on 1st pitch off of reliever (fire Gary Ward now), inning over, 1 run in
-
JG throwing in 90s Wunsch in bull pen Koskie hits ground rule double - near Mags - wonder (not sure) if a faster CF would have been able to grab it, probably not Kielty jammed by JG, easy pop out to Jose Koskie steals 3rd, nice throw but high by Olivio to Crede Hunter easy play to Crede off of good putch by JG JG is pitching well over all - Hawk says best outing of year - remember 1 run unearned - Cooper out to talk to JG - Mientkiewicz Ks called - end of 6, 2-0 bad guys some runs from the Sox would be appeciated since JG is throwing so well
-
I'm shocked, just shocked, totally shocked
-
as long as he keps going as he is, yes, I'd let him go a while more to 110
-
Jimenz flies to 8 (Hunter) nice to hear DJ call a play again Hawk still talking about old guys- there is a game going on, Hawk, get in it Jose takes a strike and Hawk notices! - and then Jose Ks - 1st K for Mays tonight Frank out 6-3 7 in a row retied by Mays
