The Ballad of Mike Andrews

The utility infielder became an overnight sensation after Game 2 of the 1973 World Series because his two 'borderline' errors for the A's in a 10-7 extra inning loss to the Mets led him to being fired, and forcibly re-hired, by Oakland owner Charlie Finley in one of the most controversial scandals in MLB history

The Jimmy Fund is a great organization, started with the Boston Braves.

Mike Andrews was one of the best people in MLB, Charlie Finley was not.

But Finley built the team and Andrews made two errors with everything on the line...Since when does the employee decide on what the boss can or can't do? I watched the game live and he fucked up big time..."Ohh, thank you for not doing your job...twice..."
