LL Hall of Fame weekend

Garces — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 22:01:40 -0000

"Hall of Fame Weekend 2008: Hall of Fame Weekend will be held July 25-28 in Cooperstown and feature the induction of BBWAA electee Rich "Goose" Gossage, along with Veterans Committee electees Barney Dreyfuss, Bowie Kuhn, Walter O'Malley, Billy Southworth and Dick Williams. Induction Ceremonies will take place on Sunday, July 27 at the Clark Sports Center, at 1:30 p.m. ET. There is no admission fee for the Induction Ceremony.

Dave Niehaus, the winner of the 2008 Ford C. Frick Award, along with Larry Whiteside, the 2008 J.G. Taylor Spink Award recipient, will also be honored. Additionally, the first Buck O'Neil Lifetime Achievement Award, named in memory of baseball's great ambassador, will be recognized."

I've never been to Cooperstown, and I figure...what better time to go than to see Niehaus inducted?

Have any of you guys been? I'm really looking forward to cheering on Dave in NY.

Something I've wanted to do since I was like...5. It's pretty nice being in the club.

My buddy and I are in 315 Row A. You're all welcome to come by for a Drop Top. First game is going to be Utah, it looks like.

Feel free to stop by and visit! I should have asked the guy if this guarantees me a free Sergio bobblehead.

For those going tonight...

I was just in the elevator with Chris Bosh and I have two bits of information if you wanna get inside his head:

He was carrying a ton of stuff from NikeTown.
He lost his wallet today, but found it.

SO if you want to throw him off his game, make fun of his new kicks or make some wallet related signs. He won't know what hit him!

Christmas Day game

Garces — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 00:16:58 -0000

Anyone else going? Runyon and I will be decked out in full Santa gear.

Nationally televised holiday game means we've gotta bring the Rip City attitude!

I'm taking sign suggestions now. Anyone know where I can find a decent Santa suit on the cheap? I could rent one, but I'm planning on spilling beer on myself at some point.

Jacoby mania

Garces — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 02:09:10 -0000

I'm working on a movie that's shooting in Madras, OR, which is also Jacoby Ellsbury's home town. It's pretty impressive that this place won America a free taco.

I found a "GO JACOBY GO" shirt that I was going to buy for Jeff, but they only had XL.

Please request any Jacoby related merchandise here.

Jacoby set a new consecutive game hitting streak record for Pawtucket on August 24, 2007,[12] besting the mark that had been held by both Dave Stapleton and Dave Berg at 19 consecutive games. His streak ended at 25 games on August 31 with an 0-4 outing.
He finished the Triple A season tied for second in the International League with Darnell McDonald of the Rochester Red Wings in stolen bases at 33, only 1 behind leader Bernie Castro of the Columbus Clippers. It should be noted however, that while Castro has 34 steals in 118 games and McDonald had 33 steals in 134 games, Jacoby reached 33 steals in only 87 games.
