Maybe he just throws like a girl.

Rough shape I know but this is the Polo Grounds Giants-Cubs playoff game in 1908.

For many years, I’ve collected Merkle-related memorabilia, including photographs of the playoff game. I’ve never seen this one. You can feel the crowd. Fantastic.

Probably. I would never admit to throwing like a girl either.
I don't understand some people. It's not like you HAVE to have your real name out here but what won't be allowed is a member having a fake name on the board and/or in their registration.

At first, I thought those people were standing on Coogan's Bluff, but after looking at the photo for a moment, I realized there were about 200 fans on the roof of that firetrap.

For the life of me, I can't understand how the ball club was able to pull that off.
