This is where I nod wisely at the connection I definitely made between Tommy Herr and the player behind that famous quote: "Yes...that is very much something I did on purpose and thank you for noticing."
I never knew about that Mets Cardinals fierce rivalry. Over the years my interest has bounced between Red Sox, Orioles, and Braves. I’m originally from Baltimore, lived for a time in Concord, MA, and have lived in Atlanta since 1971. This issue of 3.18 was interesting and entertaining; can’t wait for part 2!
Thanks, Mark! I am really going to need you in Thursday's Part 2 where we fast forward to that July and much ado about corking--please add anything good we may have missed.
Thanks Paul.
All I needed for that one was a hot dog and a beer.
Next week we'll have a GREAT special on beer. Can't-miss idea, really.
It looked as if it were snowing in that clip. And, wrapping it up with Wee Willie Keeler seems appropriate.

The seat cushion giveaway: a promotion that screams "Our built-in seats are so uncomfortable you'll thank us for this 50 cent piece of plastic."
Just saw this Paul! I assume you already have. https://www.mlb.com/news/stats-leaderboard-changes-negro-leagues-mlb
Although I am a Met fan - great story and right on point. https://williamfleitch.substack.com would love it too I think.
