7/12/77: Lopes Hits Inside-the-Park Homer, Runners-Up Upset Fan Picks, 4-2

Runners-Up 3rd base coach (and Tiger-Cats manager) Jon Brams:
Yeah I'm the guy who gave the green light to Dave Lopes on his inside-the-park home run in the 3rd. And Jim Ghoulach is the guy who by his own admission got confused and had to put Parker in centerfield. Ha! Fortunately for Ghoulach, Parker didn't screw up out there. As for my guys, they all got on base - Bull and Dawson twice each, and they each scored once. I'd like to think those two runs made the difference. Either that or one of those runs and Lopes' scramble around the bases.

7/13/76: Fan Picks Take All-Star Game, 5-1

Fan Picks (and Tiger-Cats) manager Jon Brams:
I had a blast - and came out a winner! Though I must say it was strange sitting in the home dugout at Hickory. George Foster [named MVP] sure thrilled his home town fans with a great performance. For me the highlight was the suicide squeeze Chris Speier laid down in that big 7th inning - sheer perfection! Solid pitching by my Ti-Cats guys - Jones and Reed for my Fan Picks and Hooton for John Young's squad. That's a tough role John took on. I felt a little bad for Sutton serving up those balls Foster and Schmidt clobbered in the 4th - epic blasts! Kudos to Steve Shilling and his umpiring crew for doing a nice job and keeping things light.
