I guess we may never know! I have heard stories that guys like Babe Ruth would go to what today is Nemo's after the game as well. I kinda hope that its true. Just like when we used to be able to play pickup games at old tigers stadium after they tore it down, cool feeling to think you stood in the same batters box as all those legends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyMarsh Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Not quite Babe Ruth but I ran into Andy Dirks and I'm wanting to say Duane Below(I know it was some AAAA middle reliever/spot starter) at Bookies after a Tigers day game one time. I don't know if Dirks was drunk or not but he certainly came across that way, maybe he was just one of those guys that gets really obnoxious after 1 or 2 drinks.

Crud, I thought it was Verlander tonight, Scherzer Wednesday, and then someone else on Thursday. Now I'm going to have to find a picture of Luccesi's cereal for today's game thread.

I think I told the story before on the old board but we were at O Tooles in Royal Oak sitting at the bar, it was a relatively quiet night and on the TV they showed highlights of the game. Halter did something big in that game(maybe the game he started all 9 positions) and they were highlighting it and Halter says something to the bartender like "Yeah that guy sucks" and the bartender and him just start laughing so I'm guessing he was a semi regular. He was sitting two spots down from me for like an hour and I had no idea it was him, it wasn't until then me and my buddy put two and two together and realized who it was. Cool guy, ended up playing a few games of pool with us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigeraholic1 Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) I remember Halter stated that he is a gold glove caliber fielder once to a beat writer. Some players spray painted a glove gold and put it in his locker the next day. Funny stuff. Edited May 2, 2023 by Tigeraholic1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasfh Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Another delayed start time, and if predicted radar movement is any indication, the game may not start until after 9:00 PM. This is a big down side of the more balanced schedule: you get teams early in the season you will not see again, and you have to either wait out the rain for hours and hours, layer on doubleheaders the following days, or figure out which of the very few off days during the rest of the season both teams can give away for a quick come-in-and-get-out game sometime down the road.
