Thank you for that, Yakyu. I almost felt like leaving, mid-game, but wanted to stay to see what happened with the t-shirt.
Normally I wouldn’t have an interest in a team from TN, but Dave Stewart has a role with the ownership group. He’s a solid guy, probably with the most experience of anyone across all levels of a baseball organization.

A legend too. Honi Coles and Cholly Atkins met in 1940 while working with Cab Calloway, and after the war, the duo performed together for years.

“Peanuts” Davis and Henry Aaron played on the same team … but not at the same time. Name that team.
For an extra song pick, tell me what position Aaron played on that team.

What would you like to hear, Yakyu?

Toni and Hank? Together? Kicking some ass and drawing scouts? Yes please!

That’s a DP combination I would have paid big money to see…

To have even some warmup footage of the two of them today? That would be gold.
While thinking about a selection for tomorrow, I have a fun trivia question.
If you put their appearances together, Toni Stone and Hank Aaron started 120 games at what MLB ballpark?
