He was awesome.
BTW.. Henderson hit .315 when he was 40... Guys struggle to do that at 25.
How about Raines..? And Tony Gwynn...
Some of them just had bodies that wouldn't quit. I'd toss a guess out there that it was because they took very good care of themselves. I can't imagine the Yanks don't do the same - with the extra help of their employers no doubt.
And Sosa, Frank, Shilling, Pedro, Vlad...? Hell.. Maggs is getting up there, too. Better get him a wheelchair.
It's individual, that's for sure. Look at Henderson... That guy just aint human!
I think their chemistry also comes into play. As well as their leadership. If anyone can, it's Torre who could take a group of apes and turn them into world champs.
IMO, the pitching doesn't even matter. The offense will score 100 runs a game. And before someone jumps on me.. I'm kidding about the amount of runs scored. :headshake
I wouldn't mind row 3 and rest my beers on the dugout
But I think Jim is going to ask to change to 18-22 but it'll depend on what's avaliable on the aisle. Must sit on the aisle..
I couldn't remember where he was. He told me at the fest. I think were in row 9 or 12 now. I can't remember what they decided on. I was too busy looking out the windows. We have Sam working on all our stuff now. We had Brad until he went to Corp Sales. He was great.
Quiet, boring.. kind of like their bosses. There were workers settting the bases for the support poles. There's about 80 feet of roof left on both ends of the lines to be put up and the support bases need to be in place before they extend the "roof" all the way down. No one could tell me where the support beam that was signed at Sox Fest was going. Food was good. And we moved. Section 127 now...
