26/55

That was pretty hard. Almost everybody who ever played a game with Frisch is in the Hall, many undeservedly, and it’s hard to remember their names.

The Hall is kind of a joke

It makes it funnier that Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa aren’t getting in.

16/55. Very hard. There were only 3-4 I thought I should have remembered and didn’t. Antinous, I bow to your greater scholarship.

"The part of the roster where most of the money is spent, though, is on free agents and guys acquired through trade — guys Sabean did play a big role in acquiring. And they are not good. When you get 2/5 of a pitching rotation for free, you would think you could do better with $76 million than to field the league’s worst offense."

I got all the ones from the SF years, so I can’t be too embarrassed.

Hey — I got 48 out of 55. Might of gotten a couple more but I got killed by the spelling thing. I managed to get Red Schoendienst right but it took me forever to figure out the correct spellings for Roger Connor and Dan Brouthers.

My Bucardo is better than yours.

A hot August weekday, before a small crowd, when the only thing at stake is the tissue-thin difference between a thing done well and a thing done ill. Insofar as the clutch hitter is not a sportswriter's myth, it is a vulgarity, like a writer who writes only for money.
