Late to the party as usual. Started watching BBOB. Had never heard of Bing Russell before. Childhood hanging out with the Yankees. Supposedly has Gehrig's last home run bat. Pitcher throwing no hitter in the Mavericks first game ever. Left handed catchers. Players getting car rides to the stadium from their apartment a block away. I've made it to 1975 before I had to call it quits. Finish it up tomorrow.

Fastball is a must watch. George Brett, Tony Gwynn, Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan, Al Kaline talking the great pitchers they faced. Bob Gibson talking about his glare. Steve Dalkowski. The Big Train. Rapid Robert. The Ryan Express. A little bit of everything for everybody.

Ahh, Dalko and the Heater from VanMeter. Cheapy is posting box scores and pitching matchups. Colt 45 fans are irrationally over confident. The universe has renewed itself. Led Zeppelin II has been returned to its album jacket. Baseball season has begun. Things are right with the world again.
