Hey Jared, was that Tony Oliva ?
![[Image: Ch4Mt.png]](http://i.imgur.com/Ch4Mt.png) I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

During the rain delay Tony O. was walking around taking pictures. Not sure that was really his intent, but he was nice enough to stop for anyone that asked.

IMO, Tony Oliva was one of the greatest pure hitters to ever play the game. (Teammate Rod Carew was no slouch, either) When I was a kid and followed baseball the old fashioned way, in the newspaper box scores every morning, Tony O. was constantly at the top of the top ten leader-board for hits and average every freakin' day (as well as Rod)! Back then, I asked my dad (born & raised in Cuba) if he knew anything about him and learned that Tony was a well known Cuban ball player. Personally, I think it's a crime that Tony isn't in the Hall. I actually thought he was inducted a long time ago and was surprised to find out he wasn't. He was an amazing hitter during a time when pitching ruled the league. He's deserving of a plaque in the Hall, ASAP! I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.
Even slower than the Kepler adds has been the rest of my Twins PC.
But, they're a couple of nice ones. My first Carew auto and a Five Star Berrios. ![[Image: 20161106_194441_zpsbvtqexo3.jpg]](http://s1074.photobucket.com/user/jaredhuizenga/media/20161106_194441_zpsbvtqexo3.jpg.html)
A pair of great PC pick ups! Good going!
