So I do a quick Google to see what's what here, I find the Altoona Mirror write up:
In the top of the fifth, Jackson Boob drilled a two-out single to center field to plate Link and Phillips to give Hollidaysburg a 5-2 edge.

“That was a big-time spot (for Boob),” Jim McGough said.
It's been almost 30 years and Hollidaysburg is still full of Boobs.

Honestly, though, I've been wanting to get some HAHS gym gear for putzing around/sleeping. But it looks like they either don't do the gym uniforms they way they used to anymore (it was a sporting goods store on the Diamond in downtown H-Burg), or the company you get them from allows you to customize them in all manner of potentially rude ways.

My wife taught with a Boob. Her husband was a high school gym teacher. I'm sure both of them were miserable early each school year.

There was a classmate in high school named Boob. I felt bad for her. Her first name was not great either and the combination was worst of all.

Damn, hard fought loss for holidaysburg. Now they need to win two in a row. They were winning until Naamans hit a 3 run shot in the sixth.

The Mets did a team-wide thing for National Women's Day where they all chose walk-up music sung by a woman. McNeil went with something from the Lizzie McGuire movie and called it the best movie ever.

That name is what you'd get when you have a franchise in a video game and you're 5 seasons in. A love child of Mo Vaughn and Marquis Grissom

I remember playing MLB 97 for many hundreds of hours on my PS1 and mimicking players batting stances out in the yard later. Mo was favorite of all

I would go with the stoic Jay Buhner stance or the super crouched Jeff Bagwell stance. Would throw in a Gary Sheffield fly swat every once in a while.

Bagwell with some Sheffield action was my go to.

The kangaroo always mimicked Vladdy’s bat waggle. Well, Vlad really didnt waggle, he kind of held the bat like it was some kind of club used in a medieval war.

I was a dingus and always changed it up. The best contact I ever made (double to deep center) was copying Vlad, including swinging at something below the zone.

I also used Brian Giles for a bit. I think if I were to play again it would be some combo of Ryan Howard/Griffey.
