    Black Mike used to like to tip more than a few, if my recollections of my readings of such ancient history are correct.

    I be Googling, now.

    A goodly portion of Jim Brosnan's The Long Season was dedicated to detailed drinking descriptions. I salute any major-league pitcher who drank stingers with any regularity, and endured.

    Ball Four was anything but derelect in its duties in this area, either.

    I wonder why the state didn't rescind Leyritz's license.
