St. Louis reliever Jason Isringhausen played with Lidle during their Oakland days.


Also when they were both Mets in 1997; Lidle's rookie year. [Izzy with
OAK 1999-2001; Lidle with OAK 2001-2002; so only together in OAK in 2001.]
Quote:
"He was a great teammate in Oakland. We all had a real good time together," he said. "We were all just a big brotherhood over there. "I always thought he was a little quirky," said Isringhausen, who illustrated with an anecdote. "He had a twin brother and we played a joke on Peterson, the pitching coach. "We put his brother in Cory's uniform to throw a bullpen (session) one day. And they acted exactly the same. It was kind of cool. And Rick was yelling, 'What are you doing? Why are you doing it like this? We practiced this, we practiced this.' "And Cory was sitting in the dugout and we were all laughing at Peterson. That's one thing I remember the most."


Thanks for the anecdote.
