Charlie Maxwell Rules

A tip of the hat to the Tigers radio and TV broadcasters for their recent salutes to Tiger history. The recent mention of Charlie Maxwell on radio and TV (my favorite Tiger of all time), and last night, Jason Benetti’s tip of the cap to Ernie Harwell with his “stood there by the side of the road and watched them go by” comment. For those that never had the good fortune to listen to Ernie Harwell, after a batter struck out looking, Ernie would often say…”and he stood there like the house by the side of the road, and watched it go by”. Now they need to slip in a tip of the hat to Jim Price. Might I suggest “Yellow Hammer” or “The art of pitching”, or even “Nice area!” Once again, thank you broadcasters for your respect for Tigers history.
