Extreme major bummer. Lees a great gamer. Or, will be next year.
Call for SF to pad them walls.

Yaz and Slater play good defense.

(14,364 posts)I grew up in Boston, where grandfather Yaz ruled.
Who else remembers "Big Yaz Bread"?
And with the 49ers drafting Piersall, well, read the story of Jim Piersall (CF)
He wrote a book with Al Hirshberg ( Fear Strikes Out: The Jim Piersall Story) which led to a movie.
I didn't think that Anthony Perkins looked like Jim.
Go to go. The game is starting, with the Star Spangled Banner played on Koto.

(1 post)It's a major setback for the San Francisco Giants as Jung Oho Lee is out for the season due to shoulder surgery. This is an extreme major bummer for the team and fans alike. Lee is known for his great gaming skills and was expected to make significant contributions. While he will be sorely missed this season, theres optimism that he will be back stronger next year. In light of this injury, theres a growing call for the Giants to consider padding their walls to help prevent future injuries of this nature.
