Clay Dalrymple used to play for the Phillies in the 60s. There was one time he was being intentionally walked. The pitcher threw a ball too close to the plate, Clay swung at it and hit into a double play, which I think is the only time that has ever happened. But the 1-2 minutes spent on an intentional walk is part of the game, adding to the tension that builds up with the next batter.
WOW...not many know or remember him. For a kid living/breathing all things baseball, I still have vivid memories of the Phils from the early 60's and great memories of being in the $1.00 left field bleachers at Connie Mack Stadium with my grandfather. The great memories were the times spent with my grandfather, certainly not the Phillies...
