May 30, 200718 yr Well the most interesting man in the world went 3 for 5 with his 1st home run to get his average 3 points below the Ted Williams line at .397. Amazing (and yes I thought this deserved it's own thread...maybe we can make this THE Willie Harris thread, lol). Edited May 30, 200718 yr by whitesoxfan101
May 30, 200718 yr Williams batted .406 Oops, .407 Nope, .406. I looked at the Korean War years. Edited May 30, 200718 yr by Gene Honda Civic
May 30, 200718 yr Boy, could we ever use Willie right now. Even if he were just hitting .262 a-la 04. That .343 OBP from that year would actually look good in our lineup. Edited May 30, 200718 yr by Balta1701
May 30, 200718 yr QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ May 30, 2007 -> 12:37 PM) I freaking love Willie. Never wanted to see him go. MVP.. bla, bla, bla...
May 30, 200718 yr Come back Willie!!! Next year will be the return of 05... Rowand and Willie will continue to dominate the rest of the season, and KW will vastly overpay for both, only to realize that they aren't the players they were last year.
May 30, 200718 yr I recently heard that he was supposed to play football and baseball for FSU, but then ran into trouble with the law in Valdosta, GA. I don't know the truth to this, but I thought it was interesting.
May 30, 200718 yr I was always a big fan of Willie Harris. I thought our team played best in 04 during that short stint when Valentin was out and Harris/Uribe patrolled the infield.
May 30, 200718 yr Author QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ May 30, 2007 -> 12:26 AM) Williams batted .406 Oops, .407 Nope, .406. I looked at the Korean War years. And the Mendoza line nickname originated for Mario Mendoza in 1979 when he hit .198 in his first chance to play a full season, what's your point?

The other was the late great Jackie Robinson."

May 31, 200718 yr QUOTE(danman31 @ May 30, 2007 -> 08:39 PM) Who knew so many people like a s***ty middle infielder with attitude problems? Not a good excuse, but he did have to deal with a ton of unfortunate personal issues while he was here which I'm sure contributed to his attitude.
