@craigcalcaterra: It's funny... just a few days ago I was listening to the radio broadcast of the 1968 World Series, which Bullet Bob appeared in. During one of the games, announcers Jack Buck and Pee Wee Reese are discussing a controversy about Lou Brock "showboating" on the base paths, and Reese mentions how back in the old days when he was playing, a pitcher would've "low-bridged" a hitter to tried that stuff, but went on to say how nowadays (i.e., the '60s) that doesn't seem to happen so much anymore.
