One of my favorites:doug rr wrote:Rickey Henderson had 81 lead off home runs..I didn't remember that he played for 9 teams
Clearly resided inside Johnson's head.On July 29, 1989, Henderson stole five bases against the Mariners' left-handed Randy Johnson, his career high, and one shy of the single-game major league record. Unusually, Henderson was hitless in the game (he had four walks).
And this is just silly:
His Wikipedia page is a great read, really enjoyed watching him (briefly) on the Mets.Joe Posnanski of the Kansas City Star wrote:Rickey Henderson walked 796 times in his career LEADING OFF AN INNING.

Re: MLB
Seen some talking heads opine that the Angels should trade Ohtani for prospects and big leaguers and then just resign him in the offseason. LOL that will never work.

I was on the same flight as Vladdy Jr. yesterday. We were standing beside each other at baggage claim. I didn't want to bother him, but we did give each other a polite smile and nod.

Maybe just a quick “Whaddup Vlad” along with the nod

Re: MLB
I’m sitting on 8/8 this grid and simply cannot come up with a Phillies / Marlins player.
I need to research a list of the top ten players who have played for the most teams … the Rich Hills of the world … and commit that, specifically, to memory.
