My first year of playing Fantasy Baseball I joined a keeper league. Meaning, we kept 5 players from our team the previous year. Tony Gwynn was my first keeper that year, 1994. That year was shortened by the strike. The one that cancelled the World Series, but gave birth to Ken Burns wonderful documentary "Baseball", the only thing that saved the sport that year. This was the year he might have hit .400. His season was cut short as he hit .394. During his career he faced this years Hall Of Fame inductee, Greg Maddux, one of the greatest pitchers of all time and ace of the Braves staff through the 1990's, 107 times. More than any other pitcher. Maddux once said, in an interview, with the both of them, "He Owns Me!" Gwynn hit .415 against him and NEVER struck out. His stats & career speak volumes but as a person, Keith Olbermann says it best. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PXSVbLhyMY&feature=youtu.be |
