A-Rod did it repeatedly because A-Rod is A-Rod Don't mention a no-hitter in progress? Even the announcers had to stay quiet 🎯 THE RETALIATIONS THAT WERE ABSOLUTELY JUSTIFIED Logan Webb drills Dalton Rushing the day after Rushing trash-talked an injured Junghoo Lee. Afterwards Webb just smiled and said it got away from him. Jonathan sends an imaginary box of chocolates to Logan Webb. Steve approves. The 1977 Finals: Maurice Lucas running…
