July 26, 1991 Against the Dodgers, Montreal's Mark Gardner pitches a no-hitter for nine innings before Lenny Harris beats out an infield single in the 10th. The Dodgers get two more hits, including an RBI single by Darryl Strawberry, to plate the only run of the contest. After a 2-out walk in the 1st to Eddie Murray, Gardner retires 19 in a row. The Expos manage only two hits themselves against the combined efforts of Orel Hershiser, Kevin Gross, and Jay Howell. Gardner is the 11th pitcher to lose a no-hitter after nine innings; the last being Jim Maloney, on June 14, 1965, and the first pitcher to hurl nine no-hit innings against the Dodgers since Johnny Vander Meer, in 1938.July 26, 1987, the Hall of Fame expands by three members. Jim “Catfish” Hunter, Billy Williams, and Ray Dandridge are honored in Induction Ceremonies in Cooperstown.

They leave the team bus in traffic to use a rest room and fail to return. Conley decides he wants to fly to Israel, and goes to the airport, but is refused a ticket because he does not have a visa. Conley was the loser in the game, pitching 2 2/3 inning, and walking in two of the eight earned runs allowed. Pumpsie did not play.

The Mets continue to sputter, but Pete Alonso hit his 23rd home run of the season yesterday, getting back within one of Shohei Ohtani for the major league lead, while the Polar Bear has a two-dinger edge at the moment on Matt Olson and Jorge Soler. So, today's home run chain is the man who is now halfway to the total of 46 homers that he needs this season to tie Howard Johnson for fourth on the Mets' all-time list with 192.* Pete Alonso hit his first home run off Drew Steckenrider, 4/1/19* Drew Steckenrider gave up his first home run to Wilmer Flores, 8/19/17* Wilmer Flores hit his first home run off Heath Bell, 8/11/13* Heath Bell gave up his first home run to Damion Easley, 8/30/04* Damion Easley hit his first home run off Rick Aguilera, 9/20/92* Rick Aguilera gave up his first home run to Andre Dawson, 6/16/85* Andre Dawson hit his first home run off Buzz Capra, 5/18/77* Buzz Capra gave up his first home run to Nate Colbert, 4/25/72* Nate Colbert hit his first home run of Jack Billingham, 4/24/69That was the first home run Jack Billingham allowed in his career, having tossed 71.1 innings as a Dodgers rookie the year before being picked by the Expos in the expansion draft. Just before the Expos started their maiden season, Billingham got shipped to Houston to complete the Rusty Staub trade, as Donn Clendenon had refused to report to the Astros.After playing that tangential role to the story of the 1969 Mets, Billingham featured in 1973 as the losing pitcher of the decisive Game 5 in the NLCS at Shea Stadium. He's best known, of course, for continuing with Cincinnati and winning two rings as part of the Big Red Machine, including two scoreless innings in Game 7 of the 1975 World Series.Colbert's chain-starting homer was a tiebreaking three-run shot at the Astrodome in the sixth win (and 16th game) in San Diego Padres history. Tony Gonzalez doubled after Billingham had gotten the first two batters he faced out, then the Astros intentionally walked Ollie Brown to bring up Colbert, who had gone 0-for-7 as a Rule 5 pick with the 1966 Astros, 8-for-53 for Houston in 1968, and then went to San Diego in the expansion draft.Colbert had gotten off to a 5-for-21 start with the Padres when he faced Billingham in what was his 86th major league plate appearance. The next day, the Padres returned home and Colbert homered off Jim Maloney. Then the next day, too, another go-ahead three-run shot in the eighth, this time off Jim Merritt. Colbert didn't homer in a doubleheader on April 27, but did take Claude Osteen of the Dodgers deep on the 28th, then went back east and blasted one off Phil Niekro in Atlanta.Colbert wound up with 24 homers in his breakout season, then hit 38, 27, 38, 22, and 14 as a three-time All-Star, establishing the Padres' franchise record at 163 home runs before he was traded to the Tigers in November 1974 for Ed Brinkman, Dick Sharon, and Bob Strampe.The Padres' current franchise leader in home runs? Still Nate Colbert at 163. The single-season mark of 38 stood until Ken Caminiti hit 40 homers in 1996, followed by Greg Vaughn hitting 50 two years later. The Padres have since had 40-homer seasons by Phil Nevin (41 in 2001), Adrián González (40 in 2009), and Fernando Tatis Jr. (42 in 2021).González got up to 161 before he left San Diego, where Nevin is third on the team's dinger list at 156, followed by Dave Winfield (154), Tony Gwynn (135), Wil Myers (134), Ryan Klesko (133), Caminiti (121), and Manny Machado (116).Those are the only nine players to hit 100 home runs for the Padres. Tatis is at 96, so he'll get there soon, and either he or Machado should eclipse Colbert's total over the next couple of seasons. Then again, who would've thought that Colbert would still be San Diego's home run king today? This is a public episode.

I'm Down was recorded on June 14, 1965. That night, in Cincinnati, Ed Kranepool drew a leadoff walk in the second inning… Charley Smith reached first base on a strikeout and wild pitch in the fourth (and was erased on a Kranepool double play ball)… and those were the only baserunners that the Mets got in 10 innings against Jim Maloney, while striking out 17 times in those 10 innings.Thing is, Frank Lary kept the Reds off the scoreboard, if not the bases, for eight innings, and Larry Bearnarth kept the double shutout going until Johnny Lewis homered off Maloney to lead off the 11th. The Mets got a second hit from Roy McMillan in the inning, but Jesse Gonder bounced into another DP. Bearnarth worked around a Frank Robinson single in the bottom of the 11th to close it out, and the Mets had themselves an absolutely bizarre win in front of a crowd of less than 6,000 people at Crosley Field.Later that year, Maloney threw another 10-inning no-hitter at Wrigley Field, only that time, the Reds managed to get him a run in extras.

Greg Graziano joins Steve Jaxon and Dan Berger on this encore presentation. The CWC folks are gone fishin' this week and there is no new show for today, Sept. 7, 2022. So this podcast episode is a repeat of a show that originally aired on KSRO on Dec. 30, 2020, featuring Greg Graziano, the winemaker for the Graziano Family of Wines. Greg Graziano, winemaker for The Graziano Family of Wines the joins Steve Jaxon and Dan Berger on California Wine Country today. His grandfather, Vincenzo Graziano, landed on Ellis Island in 1907 and worked his way across the country to Mendocino where he bought 100 acres with his future brother-in-law and began planting grapes, two years before Prohibition. During Prohibition they did whatever they could to survive, selling what wine was legal to sell. Then they sold grapes to Gallo and Italian Swiss Colony, and also Sebastiani and Parducci. Then the family started Mendocino Vineyards in the early 1950s. Gallo and Italian Swiss Colony bought most of the bulk wines then. Later, it was purchased and renamed Cresta Blanca. Then Constellation bought it and changed it to Dunwood, which never took off. Greg started making wine in 1977 and started Milano winery with his friend Jim Maloney. In 1985 he went to work for La Crema and took over in 1986 and was winemaker until 1990. They made 50,000 cases per year then, and now it's maybe 2 million, so it's a different thing now. The Jackson Family owns it now. They grow around 30 different grape varieties. He studied at UC Davis and did not graduate, but he explains how he knows what he needs to know. He learned by working for some really great winemakers. Dan Berger appreciates that they make wine from so many varietals from Italy and elsewhere that nobody else is working with. They have a 2019 Monte Volpe called Vesuvius from Potter Valley. The wine is a blend of grapes that grow around Vesuvius, including Coda di Volpe, Fiano, Greco di Tufo, Trebbiano and others. The vineyard is at a higher elevation so it is cooler so the grapes have higher acidity. The different varieties in this wine are usually never all together. It is very complex and rich, but not oaky. “The fruit is barking at me in this, it's wonderful.” – Steve Jaxon Greg mentions that they are using screw caps now. They found that there are too few people able to work a corkscrew. The year has been difficult due to all the pandemic closures, but that will improve. Click the logo to visit our sponsor Bottle Barn online for the coolest bargains on wine, beer and spirits. The Graziano Family of Wines includes all the different brands, four at the present time with one more on the way. Monte Volpe is all Italian grape varieties. St. Gregory is all Pinots. They take a break to taste Dan Berger's Cellar Dweller of the week. It is a 2014 J Lohr Cuvée POM, a Merlot-based Bordeaux style wine. It was fresh and young in 2018 and now (2020) it still has yet to develop its characteristics. Next they taste the 2017 St. Gregory Pinot Meunier. Dan mentions that there is more Pinot Meunier planted in France in Champagne than actual Champagne grapes. Dan calls it a white wine with color. Greg explains how to identify it against ordinary Pinot Noir by looking at the growing tips of the vine and underneath the leaf, they are covered with tiny white hairs. (The Munier in French is a miller, who gets covered with white dust by milling grain.) It's very floral. They're probably the oldest producer of this in the state. Chandon used to make it but stopped, there was another too. They also make sparkling wine from it. The winery is in Redwood Valley but the tasting room is in Hopland, so that is the place to visit. There are outdoor chairs and umbrellas, for now, but they are open (late 2020). Click the logo to visit our sponsor Rodney Strong for the latest on the 2022 Summer Concert series. A 2016 Barbera is next. Greg opines that in America,
Former Temple star Mike Vreeswyk, one of the top players on Hall of Fame coach John Chaney's 1987-88 team that was ranked No. 1 in the country and advanced to the Elite Eight, talked to OwlScoop.com Wednesday, and you can hear part of that interview on this week's podcast. Vreeswyk, now an assistant coach at The George School, scored 1,650 points in his Temple career, is a member of the Big 5 Hall of Fame, the Temple Sports Hall of Fame, and Temple's basketball Ring of Honor. In the portion of the interview you'll hear on The Scoop, Vreeswyk, among other things, weighed in on our OwlScoop.com Temple Hoops All-Time Fantasy Draft, shared memories of Chaney, past teammates like Ernest Pollard, Mark Macon and Howie Evans, and talked about what made the late Jim Maloney such an outstanding assistant coach. And with Temple's football season opener just 16 days away, OwlScoop.com Editor John DiCarlo and OwlScoop.com reporter Javon Edmonds talked more about the position battles taking shape in preseason camp, as well as the single-digit selections that were announced Monday night. You'll hear some audio from offensive line coach Chris Wiesehan on how things are shaping up at center and right tackle and details on the team's first scrimmage.
In the long history of baseball, it's only happened twice that pitchers on opposing teams no-hit one another's clubs in back-to-back games, but the second one happened 53 years ago this week when Jim Maloney and Don Wilson authored brilliant no-nos against the Astros and Reds, respectively. Mike and Bill look back at two of the forgotten star hurlers of the 1960s, and on their very weird dual accomplishment. Plus, happy birthday to Larry Andersen and Heine Meine!

In this episode of In The Trenches with Dave Lapham presented by First Star Logistics, we welcome former Cincinnati Reds pitcher and Reds Hall of Fame member Jim Maloney (1960-1970). Jim will talk about growing up in Fresno, California, his journey to major league baseball, and his career with the Reds where he won 134 games enjoyed major success with multiple 200 strikeout seasons, and would officially pitch two no-hitters. Not only does Jim talk about his no-hitters, but also shares some great stories on Pete Rose and Johnny Bench along with his life journey that saw its ups and downs.
Jim Maloney is a director at the Illinois Public Pension Fund Association and a director of Beachpoint Capital Management. He was a trustee of the Chicago Policemen's Annuity and Benefit Fund for over 11 years, including 1.5 years as interim chief investment officer. He retired from the Chicago Police in 2017, after 35 years of service, which saw him rise to the rank of Lieutenant. Jim has been active as an advocate for public fund investors for over a decade and is an active participant in the institutional investor conference circuit – when it exists.Our conversation traces Jim's childhood in the Midwest and his ties with Ireland, including a period spent in the country while growing up, and then what led him to enter the Chicago police. We look at the highs and lows of a career of over 35 years, in which Jim took every available opportunity to advance and take on extra training and built strong collegial ties. We look at what first interested him in investment and how his representation on the Trustee Board of the Pension Fund tilted his life in another direction. Jim is a good friend of mine and was the reason I had the privilege to serve as CIO of the Chicago Policemen's Annuity and Benefit fund for over 3 years. It was a further privilege to interview him here.
Mark and Andy are joined on this episode by baseball stats guru Jim Passon. The hosts and their guest take turns highlighting some of the less-remembered stars of the 1960s.

They all had their moments of glory, however, and this episode serves to remind us of those moments. Stay to the end to hear Jim, Mark, and Andy play Roll The Stat by guessing career OPSes of players from that era. You won't want to miss one of the 120 minutes.

This Barbera got some oak aging, but it's very rare to do that in its native Piemonte. This is the Enotria brand. It was the Greek name for Italy and means Land of Wine. (Eno means wine in Greek.) This variety can get too ripe when its grown here because we have so much sun.
Moe Milad, an up and coming talented boxer out of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia! What I love about doing this podcast, is the ability to chat and speak with athletes who are in our area and doing great things for themselves. I an envious of that, as at 19 I had zero idea of what I was doing in life, so to see people with goals and the fire they have, it's motivating for me. Moe is one of those kids. Super talented, very well spoken, driven and passionate about boxing. He's part of the fantastic team at Tribal Boxing under the fantastic eyes of Jim Maloney and Bridget Stevens! We spoke to Moe about his history in boxing, his goals in the sport and the important things he takes out training. Sometimes you see someone fight, and you just know the talent, it's very fun to watch someone who makes it look the way Moe does. A great athlete on his way to doing really great things! Make sure to follow this guy, Olympics, pro or whatever he chooses, it's sure to be great. Enjoy!
