1895 Page Fence Giants - One of top teams in Michigan, that year with a 118-36 record despite always being on road and racing constant racism and umpires showing favoritism to white teams. Ended year at Boulevard Park crushing a team of Detroit Tigers and other NL players 18-3

Bob Boone, RIP. Boone was a smart, tough true pro who once held the record for catching 2,225 games over his 19-year career. Father of ex-players Aaron (the Yankees manager), Bret and Matt. Boone, whose dad Ray also was an MLB All-Star, was 78.

MSU needs to play smart the final two minutes. It isn’t over yet. And the referees also have two minutes left, too.
