Bob Gibson taking his whacks! We all know that Gibby was a terror on the mound for the @cardinals, but he was also capable at the plate. He batted .303 w 19 RBIs in 1970 & won 23 games en route to the NL Cy Young award. His @sabr bio sabr.org/bioproj/person…

The free agent market in MLB is changing. I don't think Bryce is seeing the contract term he wants and that is why he is back at the table with the Nats. Will be interesting to see if anyone gives it to him.

"Jack Elliot, once a great baseball player, is forced to play in Japan where his brash, egotistical ways cause friction with his new teammates and friends." Can you guess which #BleacherFeature is coming up next???

Polo Grounds, Manhattan, 1934 - Found no date with this photo but I'm 99.9% sure its from 1934 (Opening Day?), on front the marquee says "World Champions" and 1933 was only year Giants won series before lights were installed (1940) and after the Polo Grounds was enclosed (1923)
