Starr’s Doing Well, Uh, Check That, Not Well
Three games into the season and we’ve already had this from Bob Starr:
(1) “Dave Winfield has 38 hits off Chuck Finley.†Two minutes later, “Check that. Winfield has had 38 at-bats against Chuck Finley.â€
(2) “Fly ball to right center, between Curtis and Salmon--and Salmon, the smaller of the two, catches it.†If Starr thinks Tim Salmon is smaller than Chad Curtis, he’s not only a hack, he’s a blind hack.
(3) “We’re going to Milwaukee next, where it was zero degrees on opening day.†Two minutes later, “Check that. It was zero degrees wind-chill factor on opening day.â€
Please bring back Al Conin.
