You ought to write a book. I should. Every time I get into one of those records-that-will-never-be-broken conversations, I bring up the 1971 Baltimore Orioles who had 4 twenty-game winners. You'd have to have 5 twenty-game winners to break the mark. Not gonna happen. rhs: It's in my book, "Astonishing Tales of the Diamond." Rickey Henderson stole home, then he figuratively stole it. Just walked off with it. Vrrrrrp!

I suppose all Walters look alike to you, eh PB??? Not all Walters, but I'll bet that these two got mistaken for each other all the time.

Pitcher Ted Wingfield pitched 74-2/3 innings in 1927 and struck out one batter. You ought to write a book. The Atlanta Braves and Atlanta Hawks are both .500 teams. Lifetime. The Braves are 10,510-10,522. The Hawks are 2,693-2,695. The Falcons are worse at .439.

Big PB is blow-ow-own away! I smell a Pulitzer! I like to go in fresh. I could pull out the old well-known trivia like the fact that only 3 MLB players ever had the first name of Aurelio (Lopez, Rodriguez and Monteagudo) and all 3 died between the ages of 44 and 53 in car-related accidents. But everyone knows that one.

Poppie should be standing in a puddle of acini di pepe. Puddle? Is that the collective noun for pasta? I learn so much from this board. I think it's "a mess of mutton."
