The All-Literary Team
June 26, 2007
The things you find when you’re cleaning up. Came across this piece I did for Fastball.com, a now-defunct esoteric baseball site. It’s one of several “theme” teams I created in my obviously too-copius spare time. I’m sure there are many other plasyers who fit the bill since I worked on this.
Pitchers: Robbie “Samuel” Beckett (1996), Craig “Larry” McMurtry (1983-95), Jerry “St.” Augustine (1975-84), Roger “Samuel” Clemens (1986-), Sheriff “William” Blake (1920, 24-31, 37)
Catcher: Mike “F. Scott” Fiztgerald (1983-92)
First Base: Bud “Tom” Clancy (1924-30, 32, 34)
Second Base: Ed “Ernest” Hemingway (1914, 17-18)
Shortstop: Bill “Bertrand” Russell (1969-86)
Third Base: Bill “James” Joyce (1980-92, 94-95)
Left Field: Buster “Henry” Adams (1939, 43-47)
Center Field: Dion “Henry” James (1983-93, 95-96)
Right Field: Chick “Stephen” King (1954-56, 58-59)
Manager: Charlie “Brothers” Grimm (1932-38, 44-49, 52-56, 60)
