I can't believe I didn't think of Gehrig or Marichal on first pass....bad on me. Boggs is a good one for chicken.

Obviously if Wynn is the first half of the right answer for 11, then Lefty has to be the 2nd half.
Along the same lines 10 must be Clemente then.

The Tigers announcers just mentioned it. You're running away with the Mia draft. Willie is hanging tough somehow, although it's just a matter of time.

Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.

Folks, if you got an e-mail from me today with a link to something, I was hacked, so don't open it.
I've been trying to e-mail folks not to open it, but Yahoo won't let me send group e-mails of more than 20, so hopefully I can get hold of more folks this way.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

good old yahoo... Try this - I have had this yahoo virus on a few machines the past year and this cleaned it. in fact it will clean almost every viruses and malware out there and fix other windows issues. its rather invasive, but I've only had one computer out of many not come back OK. Its a good program to run on any computer every so often. On badly infected machines it can take 30-45 minutes, but usually about 5-10 minutes. Download it, and run it. answer yes to recovery console if it asks.

Combo fix- they update it every few days. you need to run the most current version for it to work properly

Dan - you never said it HAD to be a player correct? If so I think I know it but will see if anyone else can get it with that clue.

Both answers are players.
Neither is a pitcher.
