One of the strangest things that ever
happened in baseball was when a batter
hit a fly ball that NEVER CAME
DOWN!...It happened at the indoor Min-
neapolis Metrodome on May 4, 1984
when Dave Kingman of Oakland hit a high
fly ball that got caught in the netting of the
fabric ceiling of the dome...The ball stuck
there and didn't come down...The umpires
decided it was a ground rule double.

What score does the average golfer in
America shoot?...The answer may sur-
prise you...According to a survey by the
national Golf Foundation, the average
non-pro golfer shoots about 97 for 18
holes...They say only one third of all
golfers regularly break 90, and only 8 per-
cent shoot in the 70s.
Why is a first year player in sports
called a =rookie"?...The name came from
chess, where the rook is often the last
piece played...In the eady days of base-
ball, tim-year players were usually the last
used...They became known as "rooks" or
"rookies'.
