Yeah it's been a tough ride, that is what made the back to back World Series' even more sweet. I remember back in the 2000s nobody even know who the players were. I'm worried the lack of TV coverage at bars is going to create the same apathy that we had back then around town. I was downtown at Street Car Grille, then Antons. Not on TV. They had TVs but OTHER baseball games were on and some info commercial. Then at Sierra Grille over the weekend same thing. Preseason football only, they had no Ballys.
Closest I've seen in my lifetime is Carlos Beltran as far as this tear he's on. He was a beast. I bet Salvy has had one of these windows where he looks like the best player in baseball too, though.
