Isn't he the same player that was banned for 10 games after sticky substance was found in his glove? He must have found somewhere else to hide that stuff.

sticky stuff and steroids goes with baseball like hot dogs and beer. It is part of the game.

Domingo had "the stickiest fingers" ever when he was suspended.

Well you were born in 1927, I'm sure you have a lot of vinyl
Very little, in fact. I was into copying other peoples vinyl onto tape and then Naptser came along and the rest is history.
I did get to see the Yankees play once at the old stadium, but I don't think they had a Dominican player at the time.

Windy probably witnessed Thurman Munson best home games... and manager Billy Martin's tirade.

Juan Marichal was the first big name Dominican player. He started pitching in 1960. His nickname was the "Dominican Dandy". One of the best of his time............
I met Juan a year ago in Santo Domingo. He and his son were very nice to talk to. Also in the room was the father of a former Boston Red Sox player named Julio Lugo and I spoke at length about his now deceased son and the area where they are going to build new AI resorts in the southwest (Pedernales).
