The Guards great start this year has been compared to the 1966 Indians.
Yeah, the 66 Indians still wound up with a 81-81 record after that fast start.
But the 66 Tribe was one of my favorite teams as a kid.
How about an OF of Leon "Daddy Wags" Wagner, Vic Davalillo, and Rocky Colavito.
Fred "Wingy" Whitfield, Max Alvis, and "Immortal" Joe Azcue also.
SP - "Sudden" Sam McDowell, Sonny Siebert, Luis "El Tiante" Tiant, Gary "Ding-Dong" Bell.
We even had Dick "The Monsta" Radatz in the bullpen.
Back then almost everybody had a nickname.
