Yeah, I just figured the names you read at 10 are the funniest ones. So your favorite names aren't this guy's or that guy's, so we divide it up because... well, no good reason, actually.

The recently deceased Oscar Azocar -- who, unlike fellow MFY legends Bob Sheppard and George Steinbrenner, doesn't get a patch.

Oscar Azocar died? Had no idea. The man surely did love his bat.

Yeah, but she was the Wally Matthews of her time when it came to the Phillies. Every column came back to Von Hayes and how fucking awesome he was.
