I don't think I've ever seen anyone that far ahead of the organ or the crowd when singing. They were almost a full stanza ahead of the music! Jeff Gordon? Mike Ditka? Both of those two were bad, but I don't recall them being that far ahead of everyone else But they both sound like Pavoratti when compared to Ozzy Osbourne. I was there that day.
When I was eight I wanted to be Rick Monday. I cried when Wrigley traded him. But we got Ryne Sandberg for Ivan DeJesus a few years later so I got over it.
The Astros are doing something because the Dodgers are in town, as is Monday since he's their radio color guy, and today is the 30th anniversary. LA did something on Sunday, which was the last day of their homestand.
Of course he didn't get booed by the Twin's fans- there weren't ever enough there to actually be heard. And there are no RF bleachers at the Metrodome. Just the Blue Monster.
An apt comparison. Except that with AGon you can swallow the offensive suck-i-tude a little easier than at a corner OF spot. And a RF is rarely going to drop a double play ball and cost you a trip to the World Series.
This is starting to remind me of '89 more than any other year because they're getting it done playing a few younger guys and getting production from some no-names. Plus Zimmer really had the horseshoe that summer. Seemed like everything he tried worked. That was a fun team to watch. In '89 Jerome Walton broke camp with the club as a rookie and hit lead-off hitter. Dwight Smith got called up about a month into the season and platooned in left with Lloyd Freakin' McClendon, Maddux was in about his third season, Grace was in his second or third. Third base was shared by Vance Law and Angel Salazar. Sutcliffe was in the rotation but I can't remember who the other three starters were.
