Steve - I'm all for honoring people who deserve it. He does deserve it.
Remember 99 All Star game at Fenway with Teddy Ballgame? That was honoring someone.
This was just an attempt to get fannies in the seats. Buck deserves the Hall-of-Fame, but this is just too much. Have him throw out the first ball or do a pregame thing for him. Trading him inbetween innings for 2 walks? Absurd. Even more absurd, the umpire allowed 5 balls, not 4!
