The Fiftli Quarter Sports by Mike Oths Question : Can anyone over the age of sixteen ever be a true baseball fan again'? Having progressed past that magic age (however slightly) I begin to ask myself that question more and more. Growing up, smuggling my transistor radio under the covers to listen to Red s games from the West Coast, I could never imagine anything more wonderful than to be associated with a big-league ballclub. The men who played the game between the fadeouts from WLW Radio (130 miles away) were truly heroes. As those players slowly turn the corner toward retirement, I doubt seriously that I will ever be able to dedicate myself to to another group of athletes as I did then. More than that, however, I find myself slipping into the recital that I used to hear from the old guys when I was a kid - "Sure, he's a pretty fair ballplayer, but you should have seen ..." The accompanying speech goes like this-"Baseball isn't what it used to be; that never would have happened back twenty years ago." Why is it that I suspect that the same people who say those things today heard the same speeches 20, 30 or 50 years ago? Pure experience tells me that the very ballplayers who today are "incomparabIe"-Joe DiMaggio. Willie Mays. Mickey Mantle, Ted Williams-couldn't measure up to the "old guys" of forty years ago. Why do I know for sure that Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig had to stand the test of time before anyone compared them with Wee Willie Keeler or Cap Anson? The reason. I daresay, is that all of these grand old gentlemen palyed baseball when somebody was sixteen years old. Having the memory of a Ty Cobb stamped on your adolescent memory, woe unto anyone who would dare suggest that another mere mortal would measure up People say that youngsters don't have heroes anymore. People 20 years ago said that youngsters didn't have heroes anymore. The simple reason is that the people who were making the statement weren't making any new heroes. The unfortunate price of maturity is that we are forced to see our heroes as they really are-getting old just like everybody else. Come on now, tell me you could have imagined Joe DiMaggio with white hair and a Mister Coffee to wake him up What brought this reverie on? I guess, it's just that my "Boys of Summer" are easing into middle-age, and may all be gone in a year or two. As durable as they have been, Joe Morgan, Tony Perez, and most of all Pete Rose are just about gone. I don't want them to retire-part of me will go with them, but neither do I want to sully the memory of the way it was. I can remember watching an aging Mickey Mantle as I grew up, and wondering who older folks made such a big deal about a guy who couldn't play first base too well. What a shame for a ten-year old to think that Pete Rose spent his career using Grecian Formula and coming out for defensive replacements. Daryl Strawberry, Cal Ripken, Ron Kittle-they'll probably all end up in the Hall of Fame, but we'll always wonder if they could've handled Gibson in his prime. But as any 50 year old fan should know, Gibby would 've sung a different tune if he'd had to pitch to Duke Snider in Ebbets Field.... that major purchase. Now come to the right bank for your loan.

Three straight singles and stolen bases gave Pilot Rock the two runs they needed to hand Heppner their sixth loss of the season.
