I saw Spike Owen as the 3rd base coach for the Round Rock Express (AAA Astros) when they played the Omaha Royals. Here are some pictures after I heckled the hell out of him...
how could you heckle spike owen? he's my favorite RBI'er. you omaha bastards are a filthy, no-good lot, that's for sure.
wouldnt heckling spike owen be the same as a food critic writing a food review about ramen noodles?
This would be an example of an RBIer in Omaha.
I was just yelling about how bad he sucked in RBI. The crowd (or at least what was there) all got a kick out of it, and some actually knew what I was talking about. The biggest laugh I got out of him was when I told him I would sub him out for Dave Henderson or Tony Armas could bunt farther than Spike could swing with that cocked-ass swing. Nice site by the way.
Not from Omaha, just living here since 9/05. From St. Louis, which probably doesn't get too far with you Chicago guys, but I went to WIU in Macomb, so most of my friends in college were Chi-towners. Lived in Peoria for awhile too.
That's the worst crowd I've ever seen, especially for a AAA game.
Hopefully it was coming off a long rain delay.
More St. Louis natives!
Heckling is a form of praise, welcome gogotigers! He emailed me these pics awhile back and I was too lazy to post, glad you signed up...
If you see an RBIer, you need to get them to sign a copy of the game
For me, Spike Owen is always sitting
BDAWK
did you see the copy i had signed by dick schoefield? a buddy of mine works with him and got it signed for me. best piece of baseball memorabilia ever.
