@LanceMcAlister The opposing pitcher for the Giants that night (you may have heard of this guy) was Juan Marichal! Willie McCovey hit a monster home run late in the game to beat the Reds that night. As Casey Stengel once said, “and you can look it up!”
@LanceMcAlister I was there the night he struck out Willie Mays 4 times. Mays was swinging from his heels and couldn’t hit anything Nolan threw that night. Something I will never forget!
@KYHSHistory The 1975 state championship team had a center named Kenny Anderson (6’5”). Great player, just overshadowed by these three. Good enough to be named to the KY All Star team in the KY-IN All Star game. Of course these guys were upset in the 1976 regional by Ballard.
The Hall of Fame Era Committee meets this Sunday, December 7th. Dale Murphy needs 12 of 16 votes. You never know who will see this and their vote may be the one that puts Murph over the top. Please retweet if you love Murph and believe he deserves to be honored in Cooperstown.
