I’m shocked - George Foster played for the Red Sox?!

Jones, if you “already have two strikes against you”, learn how to hit. You seem to be pretty good at that as a player. Now learn how to be a good citizen too, not a racist jerk.

Sorry. George “The Boomer” Scott. I’m a National League guy who happened to be in both NY and Boston markets. Brain burp.

Neither George Foster nor Mike Torrez played for the 1977 Red Sox team.

I typed George Foster when I meant George Scott. And I was off one year on Torrez. I am a NON-Boston or Yankee fan working from memory of local broadcasts and newspapers. I beg pardon.

The expansion team market is booming, no pun intended.

This is so insulting to San Diego - out in front of Petco Park is a statute of one of the most acclaimed BLACK players to ever be called a SD Padre - Tony Gwynn.

Millions of people were affected by this man’s life; not just his ability to be a great baseball player; but how he lived his life and how he loved his family.

Thanks for the correction on Evans. I just remember he had a phenomenal arm.

No Adam, the reason why we haven't seen protests like this in MLB is because it doesn't have a bunch of spoiled and ungrateful America haters in their league.
