    One of my friends for grad school days was a tall guy who's dad ran a shoe store in very southern Illinois. He was a very good athlete (golfer winning the local championship while in high school, HS basketball (center), HS baseball (1B)) he was able to get to get oversized cleats and court shoes through his dad's contacts in the shoe business.

    Back injury took away his sporting prospects.

    Nice guy.

    It is Hoyt.

    The list he has that could be trivia questions is very special.

    And I remember when he was elected there was some blow back in the media about a relief pitcher being elected to the HOF.

    Now we have Enter Sandman Mariano Rivera.

    Marianna, Fl
    Who was the starting first baseman for the NYY during the majority of the 1960’s?

    Not actually the former qb
    Moose Skowron? It's the guess thanks to 61* which is a great baseball movie.
