View Article  World Baseball Classic Report: USA at San Francisco Giants (Part Two)

The game itself was a blast with the teams combining for 27 hits. Chase Utley put the USA team ahead with a blast in the seventh inning and they cruised from there to a 12-7 win.

The USA team paraded nearly its entire pitching roster with Clemens, Lidge, Street, Wheeler, Todd Jones, Chad Cordero, Nathan and a few others made their way to the mound. In order to allow the USA team to get in some extra work for the WBC series, the teams added an extra inning to the content.

By the way, the man with the cool hand-painted T-shirts is Billy Williams. He does not have a Web site, but if you are interested in his work (more than just T-shirts) give him a call at 480.820.0193. He’s based in Tempe.

View Article  (Should Be A) Hall of Famer: Lee Smith

Here I thought I had this great coup for my Hall of Fame Series. Standing two feet in front of me was Lee Smith, former relief pitcher for the Cubs, Red Sox, Yankees and 15 other teams. He has 478 lifetime saves and was a multiple “Fireman of the Year” award winner, but is not in the Hall of Fame despite impressive credentials.

I thought he was enshrined in Cooperstown, but Smith informed me he is not. Believe me, one look at Smith’s imposing presence, and you are not about to argue. Smith still looks like he could take the mound and blow hitters away. BTW, how he became pitching coach for the South Africa team is still a bit of a mystery, but the story has something to do with Smith meeting a British man in a bar and….
