Moe Drabowsky

I pride myself on being an extremely well-informed baseball fan and an amateur baseball historian so I was upset with myself that I’d never heard of Moe Drabowsky before. Besides sharing my nickname, he sounds like one hell of a great character.

Unfortunately he passed away today. But in keeping with his sense of humor, read this, and tell me that the prank he pulled on the Oakland A’s bullpen isn’t one of the funniest things you’ve read in the context of a baseball game. Have a safe trip, Moe. Once in a while, look down at the great game of baseball and send us a hotfoot to know you’re still watching.
