RIP Biff Pocoroba

[mr2686]

Wow, I can't believe that many players have passed from the 82 team...seems like alot. Not a Biff story, but from his last year 1984, My wife and I are sitting in a local San Diego Mexican restaurant and I look over and see Rick Mahler and Jerry Royster having lunch before a night game and they were sucking down the margaritas like they were going out of style. To say they were getting hammered was an understatement. I told my wife that Mahler was not starting that night and Royster was a bench player, so they probably knew they weren't getting in the game. Wrong, Mahler came into the game in relief and Royster pinch-hit. A different time.
