That is painful -- and accurate. 😐 So I'm going to give it to you, [@YakyuNightOwl](https://mastodon.world/@YakyuNightOwl) ... although another correct answer is that they were both batboys. Willard Brown was a spring training batboy for the KC Monarchs, for whom he would later star. They played in Shreveport before the season started.

I almost felt like leaving, mid-game, but wanted to stay to see what happened with the t-shirt. Normally I wouldn’t have an interest in a team from TN, but Dave Stewart has a role with the ownership group. He’s a solid guy, probably with the most experience of anyone across all levels of a baseball organization.

This was not an exemplary life.

New York dominated as Bob Romby held the Phillies to just 5 hits.
