Message: [QUOTE="KaiserUEO, post: 1109451, member: 272"] Well, that was fun. So, back to the hijack... I go to every Old Timers Day, and around 2001-2003 Kevin Maas got invited. It. Was. Awesome. He was as young, or younger, than a couple of current Yankees. It seemed like he had been out of the league for 20 years, but I guess it just felt that way because he flamed out so loudly and so much had happened since, but I digress. In warm ups you could tell he meant business...BP display, outfield sprints, long tossing with a 'gun show'...the whole 9 yards. Inevitably the Rocky quotes started...'he doesn't think it's a damn show, he thinks its a damn fight!!' 'Hes trying to get that eye of the tiger back!' Etc, etc... Right on queue in the game...he ropes one off the wall and legs out a triple. Next at bat...goes yard. Standing Ovation ensues. We were hoping to at least throw him in a trade deadline deal...
