Josh, since you’re talking so much about the moon today, there’s a story you may have heard already given you’re involvement with the Dodgers. First, when they were still in Brooklyn, the Dodgers had a pitcher named Billy Loes. He was know for a couple of odd quotes: One, he told reporters he never won 20 games in a season, because “if you do it once, they’ll want you to do it every year.” Second, after a game in which he booted an easy grounder back to the mound, he was asked why that happened, he said, “I lost it in the sun.” A few years later in LA, Sandy Koufax mishandled a ball during a night game, and when he went back to the dugout, Don Drydale asked him what happened. Koufax replied “I lost it in the moon."
