lol,wow. What a job covering by Hawkins. Ike almost got him killed. He had the presence of mind to stick his leg back and get the bag while skidding over it.

I just noticed there is a number on the players bat. 23. Usually a players number can be found on the bottom of the knob. I don't think I've ever seen one on top. Looking into it at MBTN and we had Bob Heise wearing 23 from Aug 31 1967 to Sept 28 1968. Then it was given to Leroy Stanton in Sept of 71. So according to MBTN the number 23 was not used in 1969 or 1970. I see that Heise did come up to the club in Sept of 1969. There is no record of what number he wore during that stint. He was traded after the '69 season. Here he dons #3 pre '69. (or thirty something?) I personally don't think that supposed to be Heise on the box. So then, whats the significance of the number 23 on the top of the bat?
