When Stargell heard that a dog-food company was running a "Search for the Great American Dog," he figured that had to be Nemo, his 2½ year-old part German shepherd. The celebrated base hitter even submitted an essay of the required 50 words or less on why Nemo should be named Most Valuable Pooch. Wrote Stargell, obviously from the heart: "He's one in a million."
