Those Indian teams were horrid, except on the days he pitched, he made them better when he started. I still have my copy of “Me and the Spitter”. I remember the commercial with him Fosse and an Umpire on the mound, I think it was for a department store called “Gaylords”. I was sad to see of his wife’s passing, it sounded like they had a great marriage. I also being allowed to stay up late to watch as Gaylord went for his either 15 or 16 win in a row Vs. Oakland, school the next day but I begged.

Yep Aug. 11, I’ll be there too.
