Talk:Earl Weaver
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Was a -> is a former
I decided to change "Was a" to "is a former" because when I see "was a", I think that that person is dead.
[edit] MLB Baseball Rule created to thwart Weaver cleverness
I think it would be relevant and interesting to add a sentence or two about the rule that was added to MLB to prevent Weaver's very clever strategy to get an "extra" good at-bat when utilizing defensive-star Mark Belanger at shortstop on road games. For more info about this, see my comment at Talk:Mark_Belanger. Can anyone help me verify? I guess this might be very little-known baseball trivia. --Mmpartee 12:56, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
