...YEARS LATER this memory couldn't have been farther from George Scott's eyes, or closer to Carl Yastrzemski's. Like one man. One frustrated, effaced, proud, loser of a man, whose endless beers never turn to champagne in the Causeway St. bar after the game, after the seasons, ever since 1918.

They all got away...

Carl's a winner. He mumbles a few words through incredible static. The crowd cheers. I've heard Carl has to tape up his Achilles tendons so tight that he has no feeling in his feet. I've also heard that Carl voted with his feet. Carl's a winner...
...Baylor had driven in more runs (110) than Lynn (106) and Rice (102).
