How long until football season?
To tell the truth, I'm on the verge of putting my "gone fishing" sign out. The AL East has gone to the birds this year. :clown:WORLD CHAMPIONS!

Hey, I'm not say Ken's old but when he says he's been a Carl Yastrzemski fan since he was a kid..."

BTW. Did you know that Carl Yastrzemski was the first 'Little-Leaguer' to be inducted into MLB Hall of Fame?

I'll never forget him telling everybody how much fun he had beating them Wolverines of Michigan when he played for Notre Dame. He couldn't wait to play the next Sox-Yankee series so he could improve his batting average on Yankees pitching and beat them Yanks.Are you serious? You really met Yaz? -

Copying his strange batting stance cost me 80 points in my batting average that year. I should have picked some potatoes and built up my wrists."He's tougher than a railroad sandwich."

Originally posted by TonyK View PostI shook his potato-picking hand and he autographed something for every little leaguer. This was around 1963 when he was still just a highly touted prospect, and you know the Sox had plenty of them who went on to great real estate careers or sales careers.

- I also copied his batting stance when I was a kid. Holding my bat high & perfectly vertical.
- He was my baseball hero, god really. How I loved watching him play left field!
