And he was on those teams with Glenn, Old Mother Hubbard, Ken Obergefell, Claudel Washington, Rick Mailer, Pascal Perez, those old Braves teams that I watched as a very young kid.
And Bob Horner was like this big, burly, fat first base who could hit home runs.
And the thing I remember about him is he left the Braves, Shannon, and just went to Japan.
Like, be a good major league player and just go to Japan.
He got a lot of money and just went and left for Japan.
I don't know if he ever came back, honestly.
But I just remember that he left and he was gone and he was in Japan.
But I believe, if I'm correct, a baseball game that I have some memory of is one day โ
Shannon, the Braves played on the 4th of July, and it went like 18 innings or something.
