jphone-
I didnt know steroids were around in the 1880s/1890s.
I didn’t either, but who am I to doubt Jeff Kent?
“How did that get through the legs of Leon Durham” or , “how did that ball bounce over the head of Ryne Sandburg a NINE TIME gold glove winner” or even “how did Rick Sutcliff walk Carmelo Martines on 4 pitches”?
Either you’ve got a steel-trap memory, or the “Google” button is being put to good use.
The only things I remember from ’84 are the 2-0 (in games) blown lead, and Sutcliff hitting a ball out of the stadium in game 1.
