Equally amazing ... Tatis hit both grand slams in the inning off the same pitcher, Chan Ho Park. Going out on a limb: No hitter ever again will hit 2 slams in one inning off the same pitcher.

Happy Birthday to Cal🌟 alum Marshawn Lynch, an all-time Cal🌟Football great, a loyal and beloved supporter of his alma mater, an NFL superstar, and a unique and extraordinary individual to whom that former USC coach SHOULD HAVE GIVEN THE BALL.

Market Street, May 1964
A telephoto and foreshortened view up Market from the Embarcadero Freeway or maybe the Ferry Building Tower. My uncle had a telephoto lens to get this Pre-Bart construction shot

The context in which I met him is this: My then-12-year old brother was a Make-A-Wish kid battling cancer. His wish was to go to the ESPYs. Howie spent a good 30 minutes talking to him at the ESPYs making him feel like the most special person in the world. We never forgot it.

“If we had a guy like Doby in left field alongside Duke and Furillo, I’d have all those rings instead of Yogi.”

A while back, Carl Erskine shared amazing stories with me that are told here. Erskine died Tuesday at 97 (Sunday column): sfchronicle.com/sports/shea/ar… via San Francisco Chronicle
