Re: Countdown to MLB 09 The Show
That was Al Hrobosky...."The Mad Hungarian" by the way....
Here is one...

You asked for him yesterday Jim...you got him today!
Pepe Frias!

The incomparable Skip Lockwood...

SPECIAL!!!!! Big time props to anyone who can legitimately tell me this player! One hint...although he played 13 seasons in the MLB...he is better known as coach and manager.....
..
.....and unbelievably...I couldn't find a picture of the man who probably wore #38 the longest and for the most ballclubs...
My hat's off to Roger Craig!

Re: Countdown to MLB 09 The Show
Alright....I'm gonna give it to ya'
He was the manager who instructed his closer to walk a certain batter when they were still only down by one run. The closer refused....this manager went a little nuts and stormed out to the mound. The closer convinced him to let him pitch and two pitches later the batter delivered the knockout blow....a three run homer.
That batters most memorable homerun came while wearing a Dodger uniform(not in the above scenario though)
He has managed MANY teams....and is in the H.O.F. for his managing. He was a manager in 5 World Series with three different clubs winning it twice...back to back.
