Jon Miller’s got the radio call on this one, so I may just go curl up with a book, the cat – who will most likely try to sleep ON the book, while I’m trying to read it – and fall asleep by the 4th inning

I had one who would sit along the edge ( it was an clawfoot tub, very roomy) and slowly put his tail in the water then would drop his front paw in. He would never go beyond that point.

Wade Boggs - Hall of Fame Beer Drinker

The REAL REASON Tampa Bay Retired his Number

aside: the ONLY number retired by the Rays is Boggs’.

Question: Isn’t that a bit weird since he’s a Red Sox guy?

also weird: Ted Williams threw out the FIRST PITCH at the first home Devil-Rays game.

This is a weird relationship between these two teams.
