Post by: Blue Horseshoe on February 12, 2015, 08:09:16 PM
For the artsy types out there that love nostalgia and baseball. Totally pissed that Oscar Gamble is not for sale.

As an O's fan one of my favorites was Ken Singleton. I'm not sure anyone here knows but Singleton and Doc Rivers are first cousins

Kenny does TV for the Yankees on YES.  He's very good.

There aren't enough pixels in the universe to adequately portray Gamble's hair.

Loved how his helmet would pop off with every swing....

I suppose these are okay, but I would pay big dollars for a portrait of the Two-Fisted Slopper.
