Another Rangers All Star moment - this time, 2006 - Michael Young hit a two-out, two-strike, two-run triple off NL closer Trevor Hoffman in the top of the 9th inning as the American League defeated the National League 3–2 at PNC Park in Pittsburgh.
@Jimfrombaseball I had heard that one time Perry shook the hand of an apposing manager at the beginning of a series. The manager looked at his hand and it was full of Vaseline!
"Gaylord Perry’s big right hand started to move and people started to boo.
First he touched his cap, sliding his fingers across the visor, bringing them down along the right side of his head, stopping behind his ear.
Then the hand went across his uniform, touching his chest, his neck.
Was all this to create a diversionary action?Was he simply having fun?"
Gerald Eskenazi, New York Times.
"When Rod Carew was inducted into baseball’s Hall of Fame, Panamanian flags waved.
When Ferguson Jenkins was inducted, Canadian flags were flown.
When Gaylord Perry was inducted, it began to rain."
George Owens, Utica Observer-Dispatch.
During the 1971 MLB playoffs between the Giants and the Pirates, a television reporter asked Gaylord Perry's five-year-old daughter Allison, if her father threw the greaseball.
"It's a hard slider", Alison responded.
@michaleen@Jimfrombaseball I’m so proud of the fact that the first @MLB manager for my Texas @Rangers is Ted Williams.
Straight up 💯 % American 🇺🇸 hero and baseball legend..
@TexasAstro@Jimfrombaseball First player to ever say in his induction speech that the great Negro Leaguers belonged in Cooperstown. Later, a Boston writer asked what the late Dave Egan, a press adversary of Ted's, would say about him making the HOF. "F--- Dave Egan," he said. Guess which got the headlines.
"Senator John McCain asked Ted Williams about how his extraordinary vision.
It was said only 1 in 100,000 could match him, It enabled him to see exactly where he hit the baseball spinning furiously towards him.
"Can you really see the laces on the ball?'"
"Shit, no.
You're readin' all these sportswriters.
Jesus.
Listen, that ball looked like a pea to me comin' in there once in a while.
Hell, no, I couldn't see the laces."
Ted Williams.
