Dusty Rhodes and baseball lore in a travel through memory
A lighthearted column notes Dusty Rhodes as a fishing man and baseball legend while poking fun at current teams. It references Dusty’s field sparring with the Giants, a humbling Sox beatdown of the A’s, Cholly Naranjo near Eisenhower, and early 1954 season chatter. It also covers Cisco Andrade and Laure Salas as top Southern California money earners and questions the Cleveland Indians’ form as the season starts. The piece blends nostalgia with sharp sports gossip and upcoming fights.
