Don Larsen couldn’t get home again
ByDon Larsen and Yogi Berra have ushered in the MLB Network to rave reviews. While the airing of Larsen’s famous World Series perfect game has been the perfect inaugural broadcast for the new TV station, Larsen suffered through a terrible trip to film the piece. In a story reminiscent of a John Hughes movie, Jack Curry relates how it took Larsen six days to make what should have been a 60-hour round trip. The former Yankee hurler was stranded in the airport, delayed and delayed again which is just proof that even famous baseball players go through hell when dealing with the airlines.




Man, that really sucks for him
Man, that’s some hard-hitting insight.
Haha, not trying to provide it man… That just sucks
Poor Guy, hes almost 80 years old.
There are still bars in the airports…no?
I hope Larson who could lift a few in his day didn’t spend too much time in the airport bar, he’s 80 years old!
If MLB is anything like YES they’ll be rerunning the 56 game about 1,000 times before the end of the year.
I’d say you’re right. They seem to be pretty thin on programming right now.
How cool would it be running into Don Larson at an airport?
