http://www.speech-success.org Profile of major league baseball player Rod Carew of the Minnesota Twins during his 1977 MVP season and his attempt to be the 1st major leaguer to hit .400 since 1941.
I ran into him once in a parking lot. I just wanted to say hello and that I was a fan. No autograph. No bugging him. He was really rude. He acted like I was asking him for money. Sorry to say but a real jackwad.
What game was it in that Rod Carew had a base-running collision & swallowed his signature huge wad of chewing tobacco & puked on live tv? Does anyone have that tape? He was an amazing player.
After Tony Gwynn, he was the best pure contact hitter I've ever seen.

I thought he choked on chew after diving for a ball?
