Not sure if it's posted as I'm not a big baseball guy but I really liked his answer to about what he is known for.

Rick Monday is awesome!

Thanks for sharing, Al.

Finally got to watch this at home. Very nice.

I knew I liked Rick Monday when he played, but this just solidifies the kind of person he was and is.

I liked how he said "19 years in baseball and this is what I'm remembered for. And that ain't bad."

WildBlueSooner · 07-16-2009, 03:28 PM

I have never seen that...and that is awesome. I have mad respect for him

Mark · 07-16-2009, 03:31 PM

Monday was my favorite Cubbie when I first started playing baseball.

VTDragon · 07-17-2009, 08:27 AM

Thanks for the post. That was a great moment.

Always respected Rick as a ballplayer... I was a fan, especially when he was with the Dodgers.

Today, he woud probably be charged with assault.

For picking up the flag?
