Jane has had something that caused her to lose her voice this week. The long standing joke when that happens is to tease her for being from Wisconsin.

John Hobbs (1955)
Cory Snyder (1962)
Roberto Hernandez (1964)
Damion Easley (1969)
Jason Grilli (1976)
Sadly, Joe Battin wasn't much good at battin'. An infielder, he batted .225/.241/.281. His career spanned ten seasons, though, so I assume he was really good at fieldin'.
Al Schacht played in the majors for three years, but was better known as "The Clown Prince of Baseball".
On this Veterans' Day, we would like to thank all current and former members of the military for their service, especially those who are part of the wgom.
