Love his 1982 Giants (except for the strange decision to stick with Johnnie LeMaster). Expos managing was less impressive. Playing career was absolutely stunning.
There are a few better players and managers, but if your inner circle of the hall of fame isn't below Frank, you're following a different game than me.
I still hate the Angels to this day, all stemming from a bench clearing brawl that happened while Frank was skipper here, and some Angel ~ threw a punch at him.

Impressive man, baseball would not be what it is today without his contributions. We were fortunate to have him as the Nats first Manager.
ReplyDeleteJimmy - I did love doing cocaine in St. Louis.
