Re(3): ALL TIME GREATEST PLAYS

Maybe Crab remembers. It was middle game players around 1992. Singles, 9th game, 9 points. Manny vs Randy, I know...not standouts, but what a point. It brought the matinee crowd to its feet. During a long point, Manny throws a home run, Randy does a fall down rebote before 1 bounce 7 line, Manny gets it and throws another home run, again Randy does fall down rebote before 1 bounce about line 8, Manny gets it again and rips another home run, Randy barely getting up off the ground, staggering around the 6 line bote prontos the home run on one bounce in one clean sweeping motion and barely gets it to the front wall where Manny drops the easy catch. Not only did the fans give a standing ovation...about half the players came out of the players cage saluting Randy...who was exhausted, but went on to place. Made my quiniela, I'll never forget it. Hope he doesn't.
