Trying to wash the slate clean

Two-time Cy Young award winner, Bret Saberhagen made a controversial statement to the baseball Hall of Fame this week, regarding what he would do if he was somehow elected to the Hall. "I'd have to decline," Saberhagen said by phone. "I wouldn't accept it unless the Hall decides to put Pete Rose in, which is where he belongs. You're talking about the all-time hits leader. It's never been proven that he bet on baseball while he played." No need to worry Bret, the only way you will see the inside of Cooperstown is if you buy a ticket or if they need someone to bleach the floors clean. What about making a phone call to Cal Ripken Jr? Maybe he will let you and Vince Coleman do a fireworks show to celebrate his induction.
