thanks luis! ironically enough, my grandpa lives in st. pete, fl where the cardinals used to do spring training and he himself was a decent minor league pitcher. anyways he loved him as well and later in his career he ended up in Atlanta where I got to seem him play. anyways, he was quite the character on and off the mound. we used to get kicks on his pre-pitch physic-up behind the mound. can see it in this clip here around the 52 second mark...love the fact that the batter thought the straight heater was coming and the mad Hungarian just lobs a hanging fork ball in there! HYSTERICAL.
