If the only place this is a controversy is on X, I'm really glad I never got into the habit of being on it. Much better to read about Randy not wanting to interfere at all with the honors for Ichiro this year.

Well done. Just awesome. Quite a juxtaposition between being heart broken as a Sea Sports fan and having so many great amazing stars. Maybe on my death bed I shall choose the latter

Okay, but looking at those lineups, Andy Sheets would have felt at home in today's lineup, but other than that

September 27, 1997, Randy wins his 20th game, junior hits his 56th home run

Lineup
Joey Cora (S) 2B
Roberto Kelly LF
Ken Griffey Jr. (L) CF
Jay Buhner RF
Alex Rodriguez DH
Paul Sorrento (L) 1B
Dan Wilson C
Mike Blowers 3B
Andy Sheets SS
