UPDATE:
0-5 with 2ks tonight while his teammates totaled 15 hits.
He's now 0-28 this year and is hitless in 49 consecutive ABs...a new record.
Orioles have him under contract for three more $23 Million Dollar seasons after this one.
SAD!
from a different generation...in Lyman Bostock's SABR bio page:
The 1978 season started poorly for Bostock. So poorly, in fact, that he believed he did not deserve the lucrative contract he had just signed, and demanded that Angels owner Gene Autry keep his money until Bostock started earning it. When Autry refused, Bostock gave the money to charity, reportedly a $50,000 sum.
