[crusty old prospector]

RIP Mr. Borbon. Sorry, but all that keeps coming in my head is the line from the movie Airplane! “Pinch hitting for Pedro Borbon. Manny Mota, Mota.”

In 1969, when Pedro broke in with the Angels, Dick Enberg and Don Wells called him Bor-bahn on radio. With the Reds, he was always pronounced Bor-bone.’ He was a scrub with the Angels, but a great one with the Reds. RIP.
