If you watch the twinkies tonight, you should be able to JUST see me over Ichiro's right shoulder....

[stroh]

Cool. If I can find the game on here I'll look for you.
Rainbow wig?

'*fudge* Hrbek' sign and a Tacoma Rainiers cap...

 

Believe it or not, he just turned 50. And next year will be 20 since the last World Series. I still remember it like it was just last year.

With the blown call in Detroit (and in the bottom of the 10th last night that pissed me off  ) one is reminded of Hrbek, ahem, "assisting" Lonnie Smith off the bag in game 1 and ump calling him out

Never let it be said I don't hold a grudge!

FWIW, it was Ron Gant Hrbek body slammed, and yes I DO remember it well. I knew we were doomed, which is the magic of baseball in general and the World Series in particular. One play or inning early turns out to be the sign that the gods have aligned against you.

You're right...I had Lonnie Smith in my head for some reason. Probably because he screwed up on the basepaths and should have scored in game 7.

I will put up the '91 World Series as one of the most exciting, if not the best. 5 one-run games, 3 extra inning games including Morris' incredible 10 inning pitching performance in game 7. Just a tremendous Series all around.
