Baseball fans and history buffs, it just don't--it just can't--get any better than this. |

Buck O'Neil talking about Satchel Paige and Josh Gibson. And yeah, it's like that scene in Major League, kind of. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WXcaIF5has

1. "Nobody gets Satchel." |

Nothing like an old timer telling a great story.

4. I miss him, too, even down here in Austin. Miss his voice. MLB really screwed up |
|
by not inducting him into the HoF before his death.
He used to do promos for the local minor league team--I guess he did that everywhere. Made you want to quit what you were doing and go see a game no matter what was going on. I got used to hearing him, and now he's gone. :(
