| Dec. 14 birdie Men's 70 802 posts | Hey Gang, I was just watching the MLB Channel and learn that Cliff Lee has just signed with the Phillies. I was shocked. Good for him although I would be careful of the city of brotherly love. Great for the Phillies and the Yankees get what they deserve. I do feel for the Texas Rangers. I did think that he would end up there. I am looking forward to the same channel tomorrow night because it is going to air the 7 game of the 1960 world series.The Yankees set all the records and the Pirates won the series. I just figured that I would throw that out here. we all started playing baseball. Thanks Harry |
| Dec. 14 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Harry, I suppose your observation about the Pirates winning the series (the Bill Mazeroski series) in 1960 has nothing to do with the fact that you are from Pittsburgh does it? LOL. |
| Dec. 15 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | well my red sox got a nice one,carl crawford. larry i remember that series as i was pulling for the pirates(hate evil empire,being a boston fan). birdie,you have someone i know over there,steve blass,i used to work with him in the off season(athletic reconditioning place),pretty good guy.he also had bought my #1's(wife) parents house before he stayed in pitt permanetly.have heard he is a sports caster there now. |
| Dec. 15 Ho 301 posts | Dare I mention that "Maz" is from Barberton, Ohio..home of the June 2011 Buckeye Classic? Ho |
| Dec. 15 birdie Men's 70 802 posts | Ho, You always manage to get a plug in for your tourney. I hope you get a great turn out. Larry, I have only one of those bubble head dolls and that is correct it is the "Maz'. He was my idol and if you recall I used to be a pretty good second baseman.I always had those stocky polish thighs and still do. Thanks Harry |
| Dec. 15 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Harry, I think one of the first times I remember you, you were playing second for Addie's with some of my old teammates from Federal Wrecking. Those were the days! Then I got married to #1 and got off track... |
| Dec. 15 Webbie25 Men's 70 2414 posts | Wasn't Steve Blass a pitcher for the Pirates? Or am I mixing up names again in my oldage. |
| Dec. 15 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Webbie, You are correct - Steve Blass pitched for the Pirates in the late 60s and early 70s. He is the first guy I remember who had the loss of control problem like Rick Ankiel had when he pitched for the Cardinals a few years ago and came back as an outfielder. |
| Dec. 15 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | yep larry,i mean he just lost it over the winter,went to spring ball(73 i think)an didn't know where the plate was. |
| Dec. 16 Webbie25 Men's 70 2414 posts | Kinda nice to see the Yankees and all their money get left at the altar for once on someone they really wanted. I do feel for Cliff Lee-only $130 million? Gee, maybe we should take up a collection for him to make up the difference. :-) |
