Nobody?

Paulette LoDuca? What's this doing in a Seaver thread?

Edgy MD Jan 28 2015 12:38 PM Re: The Constant Gardener

I'm sorry. I followed a tangent. Pulled on a loose thread.

I didn't want to say it. I thought it, but didn't want to say it. No, not LoDuca.

None other than the legendary Dakota Wendell.

That's one of my favorite pictures ever.

Dakota? I'm guessing the family already had a Bowtech, Wolfen, and Apex-Predator? Also, I'm guessing that the kids didn't look forward so much to the Wendells' turn in the halftime-refreshments rotation.

One of his teammates had a little girl named Dakota also. It was a happening name back in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer era. You get your Dakotas and Cheyennes, but nobody ever names their daughters "Cowlitz" or "Blackfoot."

Or Schenectady or Parsipanny.

I knew a Sioux in high school, although she may have just been a Sue who was going through a teen look-at-me thing.

Six year ML vet and 1998 NYM John Hudek's kid has signed a letter of intent to pitch at Bossier Comm College in Louisiana next season. So what's so unusual about that you might ask? ... Well, it's his daughter Sarah. NY Post: The 5-foot-10 Hudek throws her fastball around 82 mph and her soon-to-be college coach insists this is not being done as a publicity stunt for the college. “That’s as good, or better, than most boys around here …” Aaron Voracheck told the paper of Sarah’s heater. “This is not a gimmick and I could care less about media attention. I’m signing her to help us win ballgames.” “I grew up around pro baseball and I’ve had the opportunity to pick the brain, not only of my dad, but of other major leaguers he is friends with,” Sarah told the Shreveport Times. “I have a fastball, changeup, curve, and I’m working on a cutter.” According to the paper, Hudek impressed at the 17 and Under World Wood Bat Championships – striking out 14 compared to two walks. “I saw Sarah pitch as a sophomore and then again last season. She can really pitch,” Vorachek said. “I think other schools were afraid to take a chance on her. But you’re taking a chance with every kid you sign.” Hudek is used to playing with the opposite sex and hopes the experience is the same as it’s been since Little League. “They have been the greatest teammates,” Hudek said of her teammates at George Ranch High School. “I hope my new teammates see me for what I can do to help the team, even though I’ll probably stick out like a sore thumb.”

An 82-mph heater. That's faster than Johan was last clocked at. A lefty, too, assuming that's her second from the left.
