@sportswatch RIP, indeed. He was my favorite. That night was the first time I ever rooted against the Rangers. And I gave up my fandom for good when they traded Ratelle and Park about a week later.
@ChildsWalker No one has written about the Baltimore sports scene of the past couple of decades with more authority, not to mention context, nuance and creativity. You've been a must-read and a treasured colleague. Bon voyage!

@immaculategrid Rarity 3. I went to Camp Greene Hollow in 1970 somewhere near Hunter Mountain north of New York City. It was ostensibly a baseball sleepaway camp with Tony DePhillips, who had all of 20 MLB at-bats, as the main instructor.
When you don't know diddly about how to change a tire, clean a fish, or pitch a tent, you can always impress your son with masterful recall of obscure ballplayers from decades before his birth. @immaculategrid
Fitting that the final score of the @HBCUAllStarGame -- Team Barnett 113, Team Reed 99 -- is the one by which Dick's and Willis' Knicks beat the Lakers in Game 7 of the 1970 NBA Finals. https://t.co/ctWjh2nmua
