The hype was a game featuring Pedro vs. his brother Ramon. Ramon, BTW, was no slouch. He was the Dodgers' lights-out ace for years. <br />Pedro beat Ramon in that game, and Ramon said he wasn't surprised, as his little brother was an even better pitcher than he was. Boy, what an understatement that was. How I wish Lasorda and Claire had listened to their ace. <br /><br /><br />Stealing Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03818879297909675392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-45053532729926663832015-01-07T08:15:57.760-05:002015-01-07T08:15:57.760-05:00I love Pedro.

He's stopped by the broadcast booth during a few Red Sox games and he is as entertaining up there as he was on the mound. I hated seeing him go after the 2004 World Series, but in hindsight it was probably the right decision. One of my favorite players as well.<br /><br />I only think of Piazza as a Dodger. He doesn't look right to me in any other uniform. It's like seeing Frank Thomas in anything other than a White Sox uni.Swing And A Pop-uphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15366868132258608938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-46249920080596271192015-01-06T23:34:03.742-05:002015-01-06T23:34:03.742-05:00Gee I wonder how much better the Dodgers would'...Gee I wonder how much better the Dodgers would've been if they had kept both Piazza and Martinez.Zippy Zappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06695389359056056119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-11102615508536403792015-01-06T23:20:48.140-05:002015-01-06T23:20:48.140-05:00He doesn't get to decide how he goes in, but t...He doesn't get to decide how he goes in, but the Hall will probably make him a Met anyway. <br /><br />I think of Piazza as a Dodger even more than I think of Martinez as a Dodger. I don't blame Piazza for being upset, but grudges like that help no one. If that's the way he still feels, he'll come around one day.night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-32456834289733946052015-01-06T22:42:26.473-05:002015-01-06T22:42:26.473-05:00I don't know why this post made me think of th...I don't know why this post made me think of this - I guess it's the Piazza card at the bottom. I heard in one of the HOF shows that Piazza doesn't want to go in as a Dodger (he will almost assuredly be elected next year) because of how the Dodgers treated him on the way out. This makes me kind of sad. I don't even like the Dodgers, but I just think Piazza is venting his anger in the wrong place. When a guy goes into the Hall, it means a lot to the fans who rooted for him. Saying you don't want to be remembered as a Dodger - yeah it's kind of a way to get back at the team, I guess. But other than their announcer - who on the Dodgers is the same? Different ownership, different front office people. But the same fans.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-43337458922566691042015-01-06T22:13:51.379-05:002015-01-06T22:13:51.379-05:00I'm happy Martinez got in as well.

I was glad he finished his career with the Phillies. capewoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05028921297568214207noreply@blogger.com
