Notes: Had a chance to speak to Andy Phillips before the game. The Reds are using him at 1B, 2B, 3B and LF and he hopes to make the team as a utility player. He said he was surprised when the Yankees DFA’d him but has no ill feelings to the organization.

Between me and Andy, that makes one of us who was surprised when he was DFAd
Pete,
There are about 30 stations that are Reds affiliates. Could you give us a shout with their call letters if you see any radio guys? Thanks!
I mean, we could all just try to tune into
WKRV … In Cincinatti…
Does anyone else remember that show?
Andy seems like a genuinely nice guy. I hope he makes the team.
RB
it was WKRP not V
There was a revolving door at 1B so it’s no surprise when he was DFA’ed. The Yankees may have even held on to him a little longer than they wanted in light of his personal hardships. He’s a good guy, and I wish him the best of luck.
And Andy could probably blame glass butt for being dfa.
Andy just ran out of luck with the yankee org. he always hit for avg. in the minors, don’t forget 1 thing, he is about 30 yrs old already.
Loved that show with Loni Anderson. She actually went out with the blonde guy that was a foot shorter than her. Childhood favorite (dating myself here)
Here’s some radio links. Please post if you find the needle in the haystack. Thnx.

What show? Is 25 too young to know it?
Gayle, that’s vrevosterous. It was definitely -V.
i remember that show, but was probably too young to understand it…
jennifer, i was about to say the same thing…
Yeah it was WKRP in Cincinatti…ahhh, Loni was a favorite of mine!! Still is!
rb: nope, Gayle’s right. WKRP. If you do a yahoo search, there are tons of links about it. Gotta love Dr. Johnny Fever!

I was just born when it first went on the air.
Anyone else seen the guest appearance of Dave Winfield on The Moment of Truth? He was introduced as the “New York Yankees Hall of Hamer” as he entered and exited.
Thought he chose to go in as a Padre so why wasn’t he introduced as the San Diego Padre Hall of Hamer?.
Did he ever have a Dave Winfield Day at the stadium?
Btw, that question he recited was sexual in nature, and kind of sleazy (for a Hall of Hamer anyway)… IMHO, which was why I watched the show anyway. LOL.
I remember the guy from WKRP more from “Head of the Class”.
Yes, Gayle’s right. I also barely remember that show – I’m 28, so I sort of missed it. I have vague memories of the title scenes and the “WKRP in Cincinatti” melody.
I was a total sucker for Perfect Strangers and Urkel, though.
i’m pretty sure i was a fan of the show that came on prior to WKRP.

Steve Phillips doing the Sox/Dodgers game on ESPN. How many times will he talk about the Yankees during this broadcast?
Over under 30. I’d say over.
pat, probably more than either team playing…
could make for a good drinking game.
He’s already called the Dodgers the Yankees once.
Over!
pat — hilarious!
that would be 3 shots.
saucy I don’t think I’d make it out of the first inning, in this drinking game.
ESPN is using Steve Phillips as an analyst during games?
It isn’t bad enough I avoid BBT when he is on, now I have to not watch ESPN games?
Wang only lasted 2/3 of an inning, and gave up 6 runs. I hope he didn’t get hurtskis.
Whasssup with Wanger? Threw the changeup too many times?
