Yeah, that home run was just icing on the cake for Lolich and Detroit, R.I.
That was a great World Series.

Saul, I agree, Detroit will turn it around, and 7 games sounds good..

they looked out of it last night from the week's layoff, but they'll bounce back..they have all year....

I remember the '68 series with these 2 teams...Mickey Lolich winning 3 games for Detroit and hitting a homerun.....

This is it, kingmi. He (and his team) have got to bring out everything
they've got to win this.  They've got to prove they want it.  Every inning, every game.  When these last few games are complete, it's over 'til next year.  So, pull out the stops, full speed ahead...

Saulrelative, I think the coach has old school tendencies. Don't give in

to anyone under any conditions.  Yet, this strategy, as he admitted on the air, was flawed.  Advanced thinking must take the place of old school charm.  He'll learn.

Another thing I learned is going on, he was the understudy to the St. Louis coach all these years in many different forms.  Now he's breeching that relationship.  He's going to have to get tough.
