This guy is an absolute icon. From the follow through on his swing in the first picture to the iconic bat point that always let the pitcher know where the ball was going to go if he didn't make a good pitch in the third picture. How about the fielding play in the second picture as he tags out Red Sox' baserunner Dwayne Hosey while still in the air back in his days at third base? Who knew he was such a nimble athlete? I was at the game at the then SkyDome when he put a ball into Sightlines Restaurant. If you've seen games at the dome from back then, you remember Windows Restaurant. Sightlines is the restaurant above Windows (Windows no longer exists, and is now Hipster Haven). Yeah. Deeep CF. Like, I thought it was going to hit the Jumbotron CF. What a blast! I've never heard a bad word said about him yet, and I hope I never do. Jim Thome #25
