Jerry Neudecker was an American League umpire from 1966-1985. He was the last major league umpire to use an outside chest protector.
Jerry Crawford was a major league umpire from 1976-2010. He is tied with Bruce Froemming for the most postseason games umpired, 111.
Jim Reboulet is the brother of ex-Twin Jeff Reboulet. He was in the minors for six years, reaching AAA. He had three seasons with sixty or more stolen bases.
Jimmy Kerrigan and Jose Miranda lead the Saints to an extra-inning win. B. J. Boyd hits two of seven Wind Surge homers. Ben Gross strikes out thirteen. Landon Leach allows three runs on no hits in two innings while hitting five batters.
That's what we jokingly call our backyard as we have a little bit for everybody. Plenty of food for the birds. Plenty of spilled bird food for the squirrels. Plenty of compost for the worms (some of which we raised). Plenty of worms for the robins. Even some produce stolen by other unknown backyard creatures.

A notoriously bad hitter, even for a pitcher, Bob Buhl had a lifetime average of .089 and went the entire 1962 season without getting a hit (0-for-70). Oddly, he equaled his career high in walks that year with six, which goes to show something or other.
Kevin Cooney was an eleventh round draft choice of the Twins in 1972. He pitched in the Twins’ organization for two seasons, then a shoulder injury ended his playing career. He then became a college baseball coach. He was the head coach at Montclair State from 1984-1987 and at Florida Atlantic from 1988-2008.
We would like to wish a happy birthday to MagUidhir's niece and nephew.
The boy really likes these guys right now.
