ALL-STAR CONTEST HAS A WINNER! Congrats to Jimmy Moore, who happens to be the skipper of our ’58 Reds, for coming the closest to the final 16-20-1 combined totals. Jimmy’s nearly psychic entry came in at 13-20-1, and he wins two groovy CDs! (With Cincy currently in the ’58 dog house, Jimmy needs all the grooves he can get.) Naturally, a big thanks to everyone who entered.
Monday may be Labor Day, but Snappy will still be up bright and early to post his first second-half chapter of this baseball noir. Have a great mysterious weekend!
The best thing about the All-Star Game is that Stengel can pinch-hit for one of his position players in the 4th, and not have someone ready to kill him in the clubhouse after the game.
