Pickles Dillhoefer? If he really exists he is my favorite ex-Phil.
ReplyDeleteHe exists . . . you could look it up.
ReplyDeleteKyle Lohse also played for both teams, right?
ReplyDeleteI did not know my Rheal was a Cardinal. I am disappointed in myself. Sorry, Rheal.
I am sure Rheal will forgive you.
