Repack Haiku #184 (Curt Ford)

Thrown out at home on
Inside-the-park-home-run try
By young Barry Bonds 
 
1988 Fleer #32 Curt Ford

 
In one of baseball's crazier games, Ford helped the Phillies overcome a 10 run deficit to defeat the Pirates. The details from this insane game can be found here: https://mattveasey.com/2020/06/25/a-1989-philadelphia-phillies-supernatural-comeback/. It's worth a read, and what happens to Pirates announcer Jim Rooker is hilarious!

  1. I skipped around the video. The weirdest moment for me was seeing Dwayne Murphy hitting for the Phillies. Didn't even know he played for them during his career. And he looked so young. For some reason... he looked younger than I remember him from his days in Oakland.
