Awesome, Digg. 3rd base is a tough position, Sal was good.

I'll forever think about those A's teams as the Mustache Men.

Me and My buddy always play if you can be on any team in any sport what would it be.It was always close between the mid 70s reds or Oakland.Those teams were the best.Bert Campaneros was always at Turf Paradise in the mid to late 90s when i was a pro horseplayer.We would talk baseball all the time no one bothered him a lot of people did not know who he was!

That's awesome, Mac. Those were two great teams.
