Mr. Showtime Posted June 5, 2003 Share Posted June 5, 2003 Rex, you live in the area, if you haven't heard it, then it's not true. Score is full of it more often than not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Showtime Posted June 5, 2003 Share Posted June 5, 2003 Hell yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can someone give me some background on Wally Beckman! Rex could comment more than me since he sees a lot of game. Backman is a guy with a lot of fire, and plays little ball well. I've heard a lot of crazy stories.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleM23 Posted June 5, 2003 Share Posted June 5, 2003 Rex could comment more than me since he sees a lot of game. Backman is a guy with a lot of fire, and plays little ball well. I've heard a lot of crazy stories.. He's also currently manager of the Birmingham Barons, the Sox's AA affiliate and defending Southern League champions.

Rex Hudler Posted June 5, 2003 Author Share Posted June 5, 2003 That's why I asked if anyone up there had heard it. I spoke with a buddy in the Barons office who had talked to Wally and it was news to him, so it is likely a bunch a crap or they a hedging their bet on the Sox losing the next few games. I didn't hear it on the Score, but I was told it was reported. I was also told not too long ago that Wally was planning on being in Jackson TN and no one had said anything to him about going to Chicago.

It's possible since Jerry lives in the area that he decided to can him. Reinsdorf likes to keep things very quiet, so it wouldn't shock me if they hadn't told Backman yet. I'd love to see it, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like typical sports radio crap to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Sorry I was just trying to figure out if anyone in Chicago other than the person who told the person that told me, had heard it. If the Sox continue to lose, I don't think it is far-fetched. I just still question the KW-Backman combination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
