RIP Vida, you touched my life, and I'll always remember.
Wow! This was a treat!
Wow...just two months after this broadcast, my dad took my brothers and I to the old Yankee Stadium to watch Vida pitch...at the time he was 21-4...looked like a 30 game winner for sure...but my Yankees nearly knocked him out of the game with 4 runs in the bottom of the 7th and took a 4-2 lead...but wouldn’t you know it..the A’s came back with 4 in the top of the 8th and Vida got win number 22...sadly, he would win only 2 more games the rest of the season...
Saw that Cadi on KBHK channel 44.
“ He runs with the proud gait of a triumphant 21 year old to whom the banana peels of life are just a report”
Classic announcing/ reporting ….
Today we just have a bunch of media idiots who yell and scream
