OT: Happy Birthday Will "The Thrill" Clark

Notice how the M starts within the confines of the large S. With the current 85's, the M starts at the far left of the T. I hope Will has a happy birthday today.

The old wooden bleachers in the background. My wife and I spent countless hours in those first base side bleachers. Some of the best times we ever had. Priceless.

One night a long long time ago me and my boy was at the Dock latenight. Will was there and had a huge crowd around him all night . My boy who was like 6'4 and about 225lbs was drunk and was convinced that that was not Will. He went up to Will and demanded to see his driver license to prove that he was who he said he was. Will calmly told him to "go f'k yourself". That is all.

When I saw him at bat, I asked my friend, “How in the world did we sign this guy? We don’t normally sign guys that are studs like this.” You could tell that he was going to be a star in whatever league he played in. That he hit the next pitch over the batter’s eye, proved my point. Then, Raffy hit one out to the rusty trucks in left field.
