"Bet'cha you don't have any of my cousins, Kenny or Cletus Boyer."

Betcha I do. Now we need a judge to assist on the terms of this wager! I pick Mr. Slim, who can certify by coming to the palatial memorabilia room and look at Green Book, number 2A about a third of the way down. When I spoke with Clete, all he wanted to talk about was his late brother Ken (who, of course, is most famous for his grand slammer in the 1964 World Series.)

Now, if they really are your cousins, then you would know the names of their two other brothers who also played professional ball...now wouldn't ya??

Kind of a silly wager [read: sucker's bet] don'tcha think?
I mean all that is a matter of public record.

But have it your way, you're speaking about Cloyd & Brett.
Who incidentally, I know even less about than Ken & Clete.
I'm afraid my blood link & two bits wouldn't even get me a cup of coffee.

As for Kenny's Grandslam in the '64 World Series?
You bet your boots I remember that hit.
I feigned illness so I could stay home from school & watch that afternoon game -- in B&W -- on TV.
fwiw, my Mother was a Boyer.

...funny you should have an autographed pic & I wouldn't, eh?
