I was in Comiskey in game 2 of the 1959 World Series against the Dodgers when Al Smith got a beer in the face as he was looking up at a home run.  I was on the third base side half way up with a perfect view.  Never have forgotten it.  Of course, that was an accident.

my wife got me a great photo of that moment from the trib. photo archive.

 

its called "al smith takes a bath" awesome sports picture

 

sort of captures the essence of being a sox fan :)

Stanhouse comes in with an ERA hovering near 7.00 and takes out our bottom 3 like they were in little league. Analysts say that the Sox need a 3B and a C and that Olivo especially kills our line up. The RBI tonight being an exception what do you guys think?

If ur relying on ur 9th place hitter to produce offense..... you have more problems than just the 9th place hitter.

 

Oliva's arm is what he's here for....anything else is a bonus.

So the BBTN guys just made a joke about the Beer tossing, saying "Baldelli's from Rhode Island, he's used to it" :lol:

 

Followed by a great segment from Dibble about Frank saying if he's not a HOF'er he doesn't know what the Hall of Fame is. Said some awesome things about Big Frank. Very Cool.

OK, I'm going on record as saying it now....we should keep Robbie Alomar for the next 2 years, some kind of decent, incentive-laden contract, and that gives him the chance for hit #3000 in the Sox uniform, and we all know JR loves media attention at the park.
