Miguel Dilone - kind of a proto billy hamilton, except he's not a good fielder?

Yes, I had plans on Monday. We all have plans, right? Then Brandon McCarthy sent me this YouTube link. That is the TBS broadcast of an entire baseball game, 1994, Montreal Expos at the Atlanta Braves. It was exactly 30 years ago Monday.
Atlanta’s pitcher that night: An in-his-prime Greg Maddux.
Montreal’s pitcher that night: An up-and-coming Pedro Martinez.
Absolutely, yeah, my plans went right out the window.

one of the rabbit holes i got into a couple weeks ago was old radio broadcasts up through the end of the '70s. idk, there's something about the flow and pacing of baseball radio broadcasts. the amount of chatter and filler and stuff inherent in that.

I’ve been semi-watching this “Great Games” MLB channel on PlutoTV, lots of great stuff but way too many recent games. This morning it was game 7 of the 79 World Series, tho, super duper classic
