Well Guys I HAVE seen a ton in Baseball following the CUBS over the years--- --Stan Musial setting a hit record --Hank Sauer hitting three homers in Lor's FIRST game !! She actually wondered why the rest of the Cubs did NOT do the same==Cubs won 3-2 --My first game saw Dizzy Dean beat the Cards 5-4 --A Lieber Homer won it ( Sheffield Ave} --Robin Roberts a new Phil relieved by throwing wp after WP !! --Saw Jackie Robinson ruin the Cubs time after time --SWISHED along with Bill Nicholson --Witnessed Big Ernie Lombardy hit the 400 FT sign dead center ON THE FLY--a line smash-- --Saw Bob Gibson duel Johnny Schmitz--Believe Gibson won it !! 1-0 !! One great game !! --I heard Gabby's home run in the gloaming --I was sick but I yelled out the score to my pals who were playing ball in the lot next to our apartment --I saw Roberto Clemente many times--2nd best hitter next to Musial in my mind--Although I did see Joltin Joe once at Comiskey --I could go on and on--Ernie Billy Stan Hack Cavaretta and on and on BUT NEVER-- --NEVER did I ever see such a class act that YADIER MOLINA put forth when Grandpa Rossi came to bat last evening !!! Yadier knew the moment--grabbed it for the CUB FANS and DAVID-- He deliberately held up the game so David could have his HURRAH !! MARVELOUS !! I truly hope the Cards make the playoffs--Next year --I may regret writing that BUT !!! Guys, that was probably the greatest compliment an opposing player can give !! YAY YADIE !!! Thanks for another MEMORY !!! |

While I attended LU, I saw Stan Musial's 3000th hit and a no-hitter by Don Cardwell. There were never more than 2500 in attendance. $1.50 for a front row seat in the grandstand. I am Red Sox fan today, having moved to the Boston area over 50 years ago, but I hope the Cubs win the World Series (unless of course the Sox are there). |
