"Baseball Been Berry Berry Good ....." or "Worn-Out Cliche, eh?"


Manny Mota, methinks has the all-time record for pinch hitters, or at least he held it at one time. Notice the name of the team he played for, the Houston Colt 45's. A link will follow that gives you some history re: the name. The 45'ers played in an outdoor stadium in the beginning, and the fans and players had to battle thousands of giant [ Texas, you know ] mosquitos during the games. And it was as hot as Hades on the field.  Posted by Picasa
