70runner got a reaction from Slegnaac in No news, I'm drinking, lets fight
A Ted Williams opinion, at least how my dad told it. Dad pitched for the Marine Corps fast pitch softball team circa 1950. They played (and lost) a couple exhibitions against Eddie Feigner, The King and His Court team of 4 players. Feigner was a legendary softball pitcher who could reach 100+, sometimes from 2nd base. Dad said Feigner told him there was no one in MLB (DiMaggio, Musial, Mize, et al) who could hit him except one guy he'd never pitch to, Ted Williams. Feigner said Williams would sometimes show up at their exhibition games and Feigner would tell him to stay in the stands. In 1967, at the age of 42, he stuck out Mays, McCovey, Brooks Robinson, Clemente, Maury Wills, Killebrew in order during an exhibition against MLB all stars...but always avoided Williams.

70runner got a reaction from Jay in Calolfornia
Lived in Norco for 20yrs, house overlooking the Santa Ana river. We witnessed the gradual transformation of the Chino dairy farms into Eastvale. Spent many an afternoon at El Prado playing in work golf league. If the wind was just right (Santa Ana from the east), the aroma was simply stifling.

Encouraging news. Finale (if you stayed with it after first segment of credits) set table for spinoff. Great show, up there with Line of Duty.

70runner reacted to yk9001 in Daron Sutton let go
btw, if you ever read this message board and wondered why people savagely disparage Gubicza, just listen to his comments on Ohtani's moon shot.
Ohtani has just hit a blast that everyone is in awe of - and Gubicza remarks "That was his 11th home run off left handed pitching."
Jesus, man. Talk about not feeling the moment. Because Ohtani hit a once-a-season shot, and Gubicza is going to tell us that Ohtani has hit a full 33% of his hrs off left-handed pitching. Just what everyone wanted to know at that moment.

70runner reacted to PattyD22 in Daron Sutton let go
Now Sutton doesn’t have to hear about Gubi Tuesday’s, Gubi’s Go-to’s, or Gubi’s Key’s to the Game with some lame ass song reference.
Sutton got the better end of the deal

70runner reacted to PattyD22 in Dodgers sign Pujols
Dodgers being no hit through 8 innings by 3 Cubs pitchers.
FYI- the Angels (21 years, 9 months) own the 3rd longest streak in MLB without being no hit, behind the Nationals/Expos (21 years, 11 months) and the A’s (29 years, 11 months)
Go Cubs

Dogs doing what the Angels should have done a few years ago, sit his now 44yr old fat ass on the pine against RHP and pinch run for him in tight games. That said, will be at Petco tonight cheering for a Pods sweep.

Albert Pujols (R) has not appeared on an Angel's lineup card after 4 May and won't appear on another one forever.
