GEORGE KELL SPEAKING A FEW YEARS AGO SAID THIS ABOUT OUR QUARTERLY:
“WBWF IS OLD SCHOOL TIGER BASEBALL AT IT’S BEST”
ERNIE HARWELL WRITING SIX YEARS AGO:
“IF YOU LOVE BASEBALL YOU’LL LOVE WBWF.”
THANK YOU GEORGE & ERNIE!!
WEEKEND TIGER NOTES.
Casey Blake killed us in the American League and now he’s doing it against us in
the National League as well…OUCH!
What do these guys by the names of POSEDNIK, DEJESUS, PEDROIA, THOME, SPAN,
PUNTO, HUNTER and SUZUKI have against us? Or do they do it to everyone??
Outfielder’s gloves are growing so long and huge that last week a ball went into
Johnny Damon’s glove and was never seen nor heard from again! What’s next:
HARRY CAREY’S FOUL BALL NET??
Speaking of foul balls…if baseball is really serious about shortening games have them
do something about the BORING & MEANINGLESS hordes of foul balls being wasted as
MLB hitters have honed into the art of TWO STRIKE FOUL BALLS!!!
WBWF says ALLOW THEM TWO AND THEN THEY’RE OUT OF THERE! We’ll shorten the
games by 10-15 minutes and thousands of fans will be happy!! ASLO A FEW PITCHERS.
Have you noticed the way GERALD LAIRD returns the ball to the pitcher. He’s the only
MLB catcher to lift his right hand up just over his right shoulder and sorta’ flips the ball
on a high ark back to the pitcher. It reminds us of a WOUNDED DUCK. At least ducks
can hit! WBWF has been saying for about a year now: PUT THE HUSTLING ALEX
AVILA IN THERE AND LEAVE HIM THERE AND THEY’LL HAVE A FUTURE ALL STAR ON THEIR
HANDS! On top of that LAIRD just looks like he’s bored silly.
