i was in 5th grade in 1967 and used to smuggle my little GE transistor radio to school with earphones and listen to the games. very exciting year. my parents got me the baseball album "The Impossible Dream" about the RS winning the pennant and i WORE it out.

I had that

Number 9, 1967 triple crown, helluva player. Ya miss your kid years like me when we were undefiled? It was sports and nothing else for me.

his number was 8 . you probably just hit the wrong key and are forgiven.

 

[Covemastah]

I didn't know that, thanks Cove, I just always loved that baseball card. Pumpsie Green, imagine that. Thanks Cove.

The Sox were the last team to field a negro player ,, shameful , they passed on Henry Aaron , Boston Braves took him. And they passed on Jackie Robinson , both had a try out at Fenway

Thank you, i do know, you are more gracious than I would have been. I do know. Most feared hitter in AL for a time between him and Harmon Killebrew. Thanks for your graciousness.

we do have Joe Montana ......the true GOAT.......on no...there I go. between Joe and Tom I would take Joe anytime to win the game in the last minute of the game. Joe Cool . 4 and 0 inthe Super Bowl and one win away taking the the medocre KC Chiefs tohis 5th SB.

BTW if SF had kept Montana one more year , he would have his 5th ring , nit that idiot Young.

Did not mean to derail. Go back to Boston Talk.

he won the batting title the very next year also with a .301 average. during the year of the pitcher.

Didn't know that either, your a fount of Boston baseball history, I'll come to you with BoSox questions. Don't beat yourself, just say late to the dance and it cost the Sox.

You're not a true 49er fan if you call Young an idiot. A hall of famer in his own right. That whole debacle wasn't his fault.

 

[olroadbeech]

1967 team

longborg and howard, scott, andrews, petrocelli, foy, yaz, smith , conigliaro until he got hurt , then the hawk

plus all the other great pitchers and relief players. these names are always with me. the magic of being 11 years old.

I'm a Yankee fan, this is a baseball thread. I'm not complaining or bitching. I love a fan with passion, you have it. BTW, I'm a Green Bay fan, they have a great history also, a couple of goood QB's as well.
My old girlfriend, after I divorced adored Joe Montana, he kicks Brady's ass in my mind. Different era, I'd take Montana over Brady any day. My opinion.

Triple crown oldroad in his .301 year.

 

[olroadbeech]

Triple crown oldroad in his .301 year.

nope. triple crown in 1967. i may be wrong but i think he had an avg. of.321 with 44 hrs. tied with killebrew. cant remember rbis. maybe 127

.301 was 1968

 

[floridays]

He did, and off the top of my head 49 homers 121 rbi's, with the .301 avg .. triple crown. Awesome player. I stand to be corrected on his numbers, they were out of my declining memory.

She loves Montana, give the gal a break.

 

[olroadbeech]

1967 Yaz triple crown

326 avg 44 hrs with 121 rbi's. had to cheat and use google to get right numbers

he won batting champ in 1968 with .301 avg. no triple that year.

 

[olroadbeech]

that's why whoever it is , is on my ignore list. can't respect anyone else's opinion.

Been a Niners fan my entire life and and love Montana as well. He is the GOAT. But Young didn't make the decision to trade Montana. Young gave us many great years and a Super Bowl win.
