I was at the game when he put one over the leftfield roof at the corner off of Brian Mohler on a Sunday afternoon.. It was like only one of 2 or 3 hits in the game, and Mohler after basically said "hey, we won, and i dont like giving up home runs, but that one was fun to watch."

BOO!
You can do better than that. Tom Brookins is to the Tigers what Chuck Nevitt is to the Pistons, and Eric Hipple is to the Lions- the generic guy people ALWAYS say....

Please, revise your answer to include either Johnny Grubb or Rupert Jones.

or the tiger reference in the following thread.

Got to give it up for Nolan Ryan too!

I mean, a beat down of a Ventura when Ryan was over 40?

That guy was awesome!
