He'd been ill for a while, but pushed himself to Citi Field last month for one last moment in the baseball sun. If you couldn't have a great team — and we sure as hell didn't — you counted yourself lucky to have the best, toughest player possible, one who would make the team better every second he was on the field. Him we had. We had John Stearns. Nicely stated. The first thing I thought too was how frail he looked Old Timer's Weekend but how happy he seemed to be there. RIP, Mr. Stoins. https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/john-stearns/SABR Baseball Biography Project - John Stearns
Braves idle, would it be too much to ask to pick up a half game tonight just for shits and giggles? FOX game, adjust your DVR's if you auto-record SNY or PIX11.
