Ignore the spelling error of the number 6 hitter and notice who is leading off for the Norfolk Tide. Yes, that is Carl's grandson.
Norfolk changed pitchers a couple of times but had a combined PERFECT game going into the 9th inning. They then brought in former Detroit Tigers reliever, Tom Gorzelanny. After 1 out, a sharply hit ball to the 3rd baseman was misplayed for an error to break up the perfect game. The next batter got a single to end the no-hitter. I was rooting for the perfect game as I have never even seen a no-hitter.
They mis-spelled "Corban Joesph" but they also described the pitcher as being "ON THE BUMP"?
ReplyDeleteIf a "Crash" Davis baseball card exists, I bet Mike not only has one, but has discovered there is a variation of the card as well.
