The Natural collected two HR and a double for the Knights Friday. Did not know- Roy Hobbs was on his way to a tryout with the Cub when shot by the Black Widow.
Stormin' Norman was my guy growing up. Hit 361 for the Tigs in1961 for the batting title then about 260 the rest of the way. Later claimed that he owed his career to expansion pitching, corked bats and a cozy RF wall in Tiger Stadium. Sent me an autographed pic once.
