You tell ’em, Ted

Don’t you wish some of these players would take a page, so to speak, from Ted Kubiak?

Kubiak, 71, spent four of his 20 years in the Cleveland Indians organization as the defensive coordinator with the minor league clubs. When he spent a few weeks in Kinston, N.C., a local sportswriter came up to him before a game asking if he could write a book about his baseball career.

“I said, ‘Nah come on. I’m nobody. What’s that going to be about?’ ” Kubiak said.

Humility, for one thing. That’s a characteristic that seems to be in shorter supply these days.

Ted Kubiak then… and now.

Anyone with that much experience in MLB has a story to tell. I really like that A’s card – I might have it in my collection.
