Marichal Endores McGwire For Hall Of Fame
Let me get this right. Hall of Fame Giants pitcher Juan Marichal thinks that Mark McGwire deserves induction into Cooperstown because he hit so many home runs.
Of course, he failed to examine whether the hulking steriod monster hit a good many of those dingers juiced.
I suppose his own induction was clouded since he nearly killed a man on the diamond in 1965.
Marichal, while batting against Sandy Koufax, felt that Dodgers catcher John Roseboro's return throws were coming a bit to close to his head. Words were exchanged and the deranged Dominican struck Roseboro's unprotected head with his bat.
Maybe when the intersection between major league accomplishment and integrity occur Juan Marichal might not be the best example.
