  1. I hate any pitch that has the word 'knuckle' in its name.
  2. Back in 2019 I used to call him MC Hammer, as in "you can't touch this."
  3. Chavis is 0-2. 0-1 at the plate. 0-1 in the field.
  4. There were so many great players during Dom's era of playing that, unfortunately, very good players like Dom are pretty much forgotten today. It's a good thing that he's getting some recognition today on this thread.
  5. I just hope all the good things I've been posting about Richards doesn't come back to haunt me.
  6. Btw, Bell, seeing as you're a SOX fan, you should know this shite, instead of portraying the devil's advocate.
  7. Check out his history with the Jimmy Fund and his secret trips to Boston hospital to visit kids suffering with cancer. And how on one visit a young boy wouldn't let go of his hand, so Ted asked the nurse if he could borrow a cot and he spent the night with the youngster. So, yeah, compared to Joe D., Ted was a prince.
  8. Btw, Joe D was one of the cheapest bastards who ever lived. Never tipped, never picked up the tab at restaurants, and he never did anything for free. Hell, the Yankems had to pay him to appear in their old timers' games. And in his 9 month marriage to Marilyn he treated her like crap. He wasn't a nice guy.
  9. Williams was obsessed with fishing; Joe was obsessed with Marilyn until the day he died.
  10. Dom's 11 year totals were 1046 runs scored, a .298BA, a .383 OBP, and an .802 OPS.
  11. In 1949 Dom had a 34 game hitting streak.
  12. Of course, Joe got all the press, but brother Dom was a very good ballplayer and many of his contemporaries claimed he was a better defensive CF than Joe.
  13. This is true. I read that the trade talks went south when the SOX decided they also wanted Berra as part of the deal. I'm not sure the SOX were really serious about trading Williams.
  14. Moon, because you're the king of stats, could you try and find what the SOX's average runs per game are when E-Rod starts?
  15. Speaking of Teddy Ballgame, the odds of anyone ever hitting .400 again is probably a million to one.
  16. During the same period that DiMaggio had his 56 game streak, Ted Williams had a higher batting average.
  17. Actually, the pain in the butt knows his baseball. That's probably why he doesn't go on the Yankem board.
  18. Yup, and also Joe D's 56 game hitting streak.
  19. What do they say, Moon. Happy wife, happy life.
