R.I.P., Willie McCovey. We saw him one night at the Old Vet, a classic matchup with the Giants in first and the Phils in first, June 5, 1978, the whole of the Elmer (N.J.) Little League — even the farm-team scrubs such as ourselves got to go! — heading to the Old Vet via numerous motor coaches, everybody buzzing about both teams being in first place, but we knew better, we knew the matchup between Vida Blue (!) and Steve Carlton was going to be better than that. So, thank you, Willie McCovey, Vida Blue, Steve Carlton. Willie McCovey, R.I.P. So, in your honor, we go to Golden Gate now, and Race 6 looks best for a big swing-for-the-fences homerun-masher such as yourself, Willie McCovey. And the opener is a two-horse showdown, batter vs. pitcher. R.I.P., Willie McCovey.
