Question: Was the 1996 World Series rigged so that Joe Torre and Cecil Fielder could star in Fox television's new drama, "Odd Couple does the Bronx"?


[FrontPage Save Results Component]

Which Braves were in on the fix (other than McMichael that is)?

Justice The Starting Rotation Wohlers All of the above

 

Facing an average hitter like Jim Leyritz in a crucial world series game I would

Throw him nothing but 99 mph fastballs and watch him flail

Mix up 99 mph fastballs with my unhittable splitfinger pitch and laugh as he embarasses himself

Throw him my 3rd best pitch, my mediocre change-up, and watch as it sails toward Newark

 

Given the choice of naming your new ballpark after Ted Turner, your owner and the man who has bankrolled everything your team has ever done, and naming it after Hank Aaron, one of the greatest players of all time and a living testament to perseverance in the face of ignorance and intolerance, I would:

Not look a gift-millionaire in the mouth

Honor Hank and sleep better at night

Avoid the conflict by naming it after an energy company or sporting goods manufacturer

 

My picks for October:

Atlanta, Houston, Los Angeles, Mets (wild card) --- Atlanta

Yankees, White Sox, Anaheim, Baltimore (wild card) --- Yankees

As for the series in 97, Braves in 6 unless Fox has a new sitcom they want to get started early, in which case its Yankees in 4
