In 1989 Dalton was the first player in NFL history to rush for over 1,200 yards, catch 50 or more passes, score 18 or more touchdowns, and fumble fewer than 8 times in a single season. That would average ~21 pts per game today in Fantasy Football PPR leagues

Michael Lorri Scoscia had tremendous chemistry with the pitcher Fernando Valenzuela

In 245 games with Scioscia behind the plate, Valenzuela had a 3.32 ERA with a .242 batting opponents batting average. Valenzuela was known to have five pitches, a lot to for the battery mates to align on -- screwball, changeup, slider, fastball and curveball.

Mike knew talent as player which helped him later as a coach. He caught 20 year olds FV’s rookie start - a five hit shutout

As a young pro -Mike was mentored by the legendary Roy Campanella 🤯

I think this is a “‘Nuff Said” line: Jose was known as “The Secret Weapon” because he was a switch hitting utility player that played all 9 positions in a single season (1988)

Jose managed the Puerto Rican National Team in 2006 & 2009’s World Baseball Classic. And he is in the St Louis Cardinals HOF
