Default An appreciation of Joe Grzenda (say who??) who just passed

Only old farts like me who were fans of the pathetic 1970-71 Washington Senators before they defected to Texas (and maybe Dan Mckee, who is a semi-old fart), leaving us local fans without a MLB team for an eternity (33 years, to be exact), are likely to remember lefty pitcher Joe Grzenda. With an 8-8 W-L record for his 2 years with the Senators, obviously he was one of their outstanding pitchers!

I think all will enjoy reading this appreciation piece that appears in the Sports Section of today's Wash. Post and learning about Grzenda's claim to fame: https://www.washingtonpost.com/sport...=.213ec32a5b5c
