Bugeaters1 Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Back from trip and unfortunately stayed at a motel in Ankeny which carried the game. And ,yes, I did stay up past my bedtime. At least I see the "bangs" gained a qualified vote and obviously may still pick up some more if we cou7ld squeak out one of the next two. Time to retire Raleigh who is associated in my mind with cigarettes anyway and go back to baseball since spring training is now gaining momentum like a big train. Walter Johnson it is, then... I found the picture that Jimmy used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmykc Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Coming to the bottom of my Walter barrel. All of you guys who think we could win a couple in the tournament, don't forget to vote. I wonder if Bill Glassford got his vote down?

jimmykc Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 By the way, I remember listening to the radio Game of the Day (yes, there used to be such a thing) when Walt Alston managed one of my only favorite teams who were not from Boston. I still take pleasure in calling up their names: catcher, Roy Campanella; 1base, Gil Hodges; 2base, Jackie Robinson or Junior Gilliam; ss, PeeWee Reese; 3base, Billy Cox: RF, Carl Furillo; cf, Duke Snider; lf Andy Pafko; Pitchers, Joe Black, Don Newcomb; relief Clem Labine.

jimmykc Posted March 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Final score, 8-4. All of you fellow whimperers may now cheer, if that is possible to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
