I agree with what's above. It is cheap, possibly useful in depth and tools for Joe G. Move on, move on, but give Cash a smattering of applause.

Only one Hall of Famer. Look him up for a surprise. Three with the bases loaded. Last one of those from an Indian. 22 hit the first pitch. 19 never hit another.

It’s just so-so, but I have to admit I was stirred by the sequence of Daily News pages at the end.

[15] Good question. Not at touchy as Hawkins wearing #21, but I can understand why Vizquel would want to honor Aparicio while playing with the White Sox.

Like Vizquel (and Ozzie), Aparicio hails from Venezuela, so that's likely behind this, although I would question why Vizquel never wore #11 before.
