In 2015 Brock Holt cracked the Red Sox record book by becoming the first Boston player to start games at seven different positions and last night he hit a cycle against the miserable Atlanta Braves, which was the first single-double, triple, and homer combo for a Bosox player in nineteen years. Even better my team stopped a seven-game losing streak, however I'm more impressed how baseball and many other sports come up with players' great names.
Enos Slaughter, Rollie Fingers, Vida Blue, Liuz Tiant, Reggie Jackson, Big Papi, Willie MaysHonus Wagner, Dewey Evans, Babe Ruth and thousands upon thousands of monikers destined to grace Little League fields, minor league parks, and MBL stadiums.
"Now up for the Reed Sox_____."
ps Pete Rose will never get into the Hall of Fame no matter how good his name is.
