We Have a Weiner!!!!



Well yes.....if it isn't the one and only "Popeye"...
former Cubs Manager Donald William Zimmer.

Thanks for all of the Ed Farmer and Nellie Fox guesses....
but please people....READ THE HINTS!!
.....and these HINTS led to a rookie named
Mr. David O'Connor to his first TT win!!

I think you now have some new competition out there people!

--born in Cincinnati, OH.
--played for the Cubbies in 1960-61
--managed the Cubbies from 1984-86
--NL Manager of the Year in 1989
--was drafted in 1949 and currently a coach with the Tampa Bay Rays.
--married his wife at Home Plate before a minor league game.
--at age 22....he was hit by a pitch that knocked him out for almost 2 weeks.
--he lost 50 lbs....had 3 holes drilled into his head to relieve the pressure
and was told he was finished in baseball.
