Great all-star father-son moment

My dad went to East Tennessee State in the late 70s, and was there when a guy named Atlee Hammaker pitched. Dad said he was the most dominant pitcher he’d ever seen, and he rode that all the way to an All-Star game appearance in 1983, where he proceeded to suck to the tune of 7 ER in 0.2 ER. He was never the same…

I'm not making this up:
“I’ve taken a lot of crap from a lot of people,” Rocker told ESPN. “Probably more than anybody in the history of this sport. I know Hank and Jackie took a good deal of crap, but I guarantee it wasn’t for six years. I just keep thinking: How much am I supposed to take?”
