Oh yeah. Bald head, goatee, plenty of homers and strikeouts, slow on the bases. Bucky's had a late start to his career, so I don't know if he can do what Buhner did, plus Buhner had a great arm in RF, so he had more defensive value. Bucky's also a lot heftier than Buhner was.
I think Buhner looks a lot like Bavazi, the M's GM. They are twin uglies.
Roger Angell: I was talking with Bob Gibson and I said: 'Are you always this competitive?' He said: 'Oh, I think so. I got a three-year old daughter, and I've played about 500 games of tic-tac-toe with her and she hasn't beat me yet.'
