Two years ago, I had the privilege of seeing Ray Lankford homer in his
final home game at Busch Stadium in St. Louis. He was always a class
act who persevered through the decline phase of his career.

Although it will not likely be his final home game at Angels Stadium,
it was very nice to see Tim Salmon knock one out tonight.

Baseball will miss Tim Salmon.

"Here's Rolen. He could give the Cardinals the lead.
The pitch to him. Swing! And get up, baby! Get up!
Get up! Get up! Get up! HOME RUN! Rolen has just given
the Cardinals a 4-2 lead. He smoked it. ... Listen,
LIS-TEN to Cardinal Nation!"
- Mike Shannon, NLCS Game Seven 10/21/04

It was a beautiful thing. I sure hope he gets #300. And I can't wait for
his last appearance in right field, as promised by Scioscia.

Toward the end of his career, Bobby Murcer was exclusively a DH for
the Yankees. The Yankee manager (I don't remember if it was Bob
Lemon, Gene Michael or Billy Martin -- it changed daily) told Murcer
one day that he was playing left field. Murcer's response: "Skip, I
don't even own a glove."

You can say that again, especially since Houston appears ready to win
again.

Tim played left field for a few innings this season.
