Also BTW - when in Jr. HS, I remember going to a HS baseball doubleheader at my future HS. The two starting pitchers for our team that day were Jim Bouton and Jerry Colangelo. Colangelo was rated as the #1 pitcher on the staff and Bouton #2! Of course, Bouton went on to win World Series games for the Yankees and wrote one of my all-time favorite books and Colangelo never played pro baseball, however he did pretty well in basketball management.

Fixed it for ya!

The weird thing about this is that Bouton has claimed he never got into one of our HS games, but only rode the bench. I distinctly remember him starting that game, but since it was the beginning of the 60s, I was probably just on an acid trip.

Maybe it was Seymour Bouton.

I'm late on this one, but it is funny! Mavs get 49 free throws in the game and Cuban STILL COMPLAINS ABOUT THE OFFICIATING!!!

He needs to go!
