My favorite baseball team is the Houston Astros.

Bo died of a heart attack at his home in Las Vegas. Although

he wasn't an Astro very long, Bo Belinsky left a lasting
impression, maybe not with the Astros organization but at
least with me as a fan. He was a rookie sensation who never
lived up to expectations -- he even has a no-hitter to his
credit. The thing that really impressed me was his string of

girlfriends which read like a "Who's Who" of the "hotties"
of their time; Mamie Van Doren, Ann-Margret, Tina Louise,
Juliet Prowse and Connie Stevens, to mention a few. Shit, a
lot of guys have thrown no-hitters...

Yeah, they said that he had a "baffling screwball"

I can see him toss the resin bag, pull the visor of his cap--getting a bit of vaseline
from the underside, casting a cold glace at first base, spit, wind-up, pitch, question
marks trailing the ball on its spiral path over the outside corner of home plate.
