Anderson Takes Place Among Greats Wednesday, January 19th , 2033 Brett Anderson has just become immortal -- the star pitcher has just been selected to the United Baseball Association Hall of Fame. What a fabulous career he has had. Anderson's career record shows a 327-254 won-lost mark and an ERA of 3.11. In 782 game appearances he fanned 4740 batters in 5331 innings and held opposing hitters to a .246 average. His name will now added to the list of legends this weekend at the induction ceremonies at the Hall of Fame. Anderson was 42 when he retired from baseball. One of his former manager commented on what it was like to hit against the new Hall of Famer. "When you think it's a ball, it's a strike. When you swing at what you think is a strike, it's in the dirt. He was a remarkable pitcher. Anderson was well-known for winning ballgames and for pitching inside. "Show me a guy who can't pitch inside and I'll show you a loser." Writers once asked him on Mother's Day if he would brush back his mother. He curtly replied, "Only if she was diggin' in." |
