We're going to let this thread go 4 rough ridin' pages without talking about Kenny Lofton, Nomar Garciaparra, Jim Thome, Sammy Sosa, Benito Santiago etc?

Abbott was a true stud. The man could pitch, as his no-hitter proves.

I was going to mention Garciaparra, but he was more towards my HS and college days. I used to do his toe-tap, bat swing stance whenever I started getting a little drunk in beer league softball

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

I mean, he was great, but would have been legendary if not for injuries, might as well get him in here now



WhenI was 10 or 11 I went to a Royals game vs the Mariners for my birthday. Ken hit a home run. It was awesome. Also that day, some guy from the Mariners hit a foul ball straight back behind the box. We were sitting on the first row of the upper-deck cheap seats (still decent seats imo), and I was turned around talking to my mom or little bro or something. I almost got nailed with that ball.

I saw Griffey at a Rockies game when I was like a 7th grader from the right field upper deck, he grounded out to first, then I saw him at Kaufman 2 weeks before he retired, main reason I went to the game was to see him before he retired, man am I glad I went.

Just caught this thread, went to this game as well before he retired.  I'm planning on going to Cooperstown for the festivities when he goes into the HoF.
