Strasdays

It's Stephen Strasburg days until Opening Day.




Phenom, Strasmas, innings limit, Tommy John, etc.

But it's also Mike Bacsik days until Opening Day.



I remember Mike Bacsik because he gave up home run #756 to Barry Bonds. Incidentally, Mike Bacsik's father (also named Mike Bacsik) was also a Major League pitcher. Incidentally, Mike Bacsik the elder also was once on the mound facing a batter who at that moment was sitting on 755 home runs. Incidentally, Mike Bacsik the elder also at one time wore #37 (though not when he was facing Aaron, in 1976) (and I don't have a picture to prove it, but B-R says so).

So, anyway, baseball is neat.
