1984Echoes Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 If I were looking to replace "bullpen", for whatever reason... My preference would be more like "Reliever Reserve" or, "The Reserve" for short. I would avoid "The Reservation" for some, uhhh, negative connotations. But "The Reserve" I think is workable.

Jim Cowan Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Arm Barn is speciesist, a Barn is where animals are imprisoned and even mentioning it in front of your family pet is insensitive and cruel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and I think when a foul ball was caught in the stands Ernie would sometimes mention a community, "caught by a youngster from Ann Arbor" even though he had no idea where the kid was from, which was a cool thing to do.

That was when people could afford to come to a game and sit in a decent seat. I remember when they moved to Comerica they interviewed some local folks that had season box seats for years. They stopped going to games because they couldn't afford them anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzer1 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) I was listening to a game on my am stereo, when I caught a ball and Ernie said that a man from Sterling Heights caught the ball, and Jim Price said "nice area". This story is bullshit. Edited November 3, 2021 by Cruzer1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He finished 31-6 with 280 strikeouts, a 1.96 ERA and 28 complete games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
