RISING:  5/28 Sox At Twins: Old School, Baby

It is just your typical game thread until Tek goes deep for the second time in one game (around page 18 of the thread)...the emoticon for a jaw dropping was in play, thanks to poster "Sprowl".  That sequence, plus the sequence a few pages later when Bailey scores with an assist from overmatched home plate umpire Todd Tichenor is made all the more fun when one witnesses the confusion among those who can't follow the game live-posters asking for descriptions of the indescribable...

Key Line:  "According to my computer, Tek just homered. I feel like I'm missing a lot here."  --glennhoffmania

RISING:  Worst All Time Team: Catcher

All the GOAT threads have been fun, but the debates around the greatest anything center on players we all know well and stats we learned to quote when we were 12 years old.  The WOAT Team debates will entertain us all through the summer, because it takes some digging to finds catchers worse than Kevin Cash.

Key Line:  "Bill Bergen and his OPS+ of 21 in 3228 PA make Kevin Cash look like Johnny Bench. His ineptitude at the plate makes even Corky Miller jealous."  --GreenMonster49
