Am I seeing things in the box score?

Is Dean Anna, the SS, pitching?

[Majorball]

Cleanup in aisle 1.

At the point he came in there was nothing to lose.

Damn...

Seeing Anna on the mound is too reminiscent of LaRoche pitching his eephus slow pitch softball loopers, in the 81 Series. Tee off time, what a nightmare that was, and it still haunts me to this day.

No different than pitching batting practice back then in 81. I honestly think had George of stayed out of that Series, and had Tommy John been allowed to finish his game, perhaps, just perhaps, the Bronx Bombers would of won that embarrassing Series.

The 81 Series had a profound impact on me. I watched the Series with my GrandPa, and rode my motorcycle from L.A. to Goodland, KS. to see him. Game 7, was the last thing He ever saw on TV. I had to leave the next morning to head back to work, (in a foot of snow, which came unexpectedly overnight, ever had to ride a motorcycle in a foot of snow, for 500 miles, before the roads, and storm cleared, ANYONE?)

Later that day after I flew on my Harley, GrandPa, was taken to the Hospital, we already knew he was biding his time with terminal cancer racked throughout his abdomen, and he passed only 24 hours later.

It was that great man, who inspired me as a kid, to become the Yankee Fan-atic I am today. Ol' Grandpa was a huge Bambino, Iron Horse, Yankee Clipper, as well as The Mick, Ford, Martin, Allie Reynolds, Herb Pennock et al fan. He saw the Barnstorming Tour of the Larrupin Lous and Gallupin Galoots, and even gave me a Denver, and Kansas City paper, yellow and old of the event. Which I have to this day, one of my most prized possession, even as much as my Gamer Mantle Club, autographed as well.

RIP great Yankees, and Yankee Fans....!!! This Bud, I mean Stout Guiness is for you.
