And of course there was Satchel Paige, who I probably under-rated in the game as it doesn't look like he'll win 300 games in the dynasty.
And yes, I was very surprised to see Philly take on the Blue Jays name for a few seasons. Glad they switched back so quick. What would Toronto be called if Philly had kept that name?  |
Yup, a favorite quote I always see about Cool Papa Bell is “Cool was so fast, he could turn out the light and jump in bed before it got dark.”
