Mean Mark!

Lance Russell (RIP) the "main" announcer for Memphis Wrestlin' seemed to imply Mark Calloway had just gotten out of Georgia State prison & was one "bad dude". Calloway was standing at 6'9"-6'10" & 300 lbs with tattoos all over his arms. Looked more like an escaped Hells Angels than anything.

Hall of Fame pitcher Warren Spahn, in his career ...

Pitching: 363 wins — 356 with Braves, 4 with Mets, 3 with Giants
Batting: 363 hits — 356 with Braves, 4 with Mets, 3 with Giants
Playoff pitching: 4 wins
Playoff batting: 4 hits

Spahn’s streak of consecutive seasons with at least one home run is actually longer than his streak of seasons with at least one shutout, which is a bit surprising. He hit homers in 17 consecutive seasons (1948-1964), but only had shutouts in 15 consecutive seasons (1947-61).

Hank Aaron, the legendary slugger who wore No. 44 in 20 of his 21 unforgettable seasons with the Braves — 12 in Milwaukee and nine after the move to Atlanta — died last January, at 86 years old. His was a life so very well lived.

In the first season after his death, his Braves won 44 games before the All-Star break, 44 games after the All-Star break and then won the World Series in the 44th week of the year.
