A History of Larceny: Billy Hamilton, Bob Bescher, Joe Morgan, and more

This is my last Billy Hamilton-related post for the foreseeable future, I promise. And this one really isn’t about how awesome Billy is. It’s about other stuff, too. No, really…I mean it!

Hamilton, Cincinnati’s center fielder, has kinda been the talk of the town lately. I accept a tiny part of the blame and/or credit for that, depending on what you think of Billy. Back in June, I told you that he’d be an All-Star within two years, and that he’s better than you think.

A month ago, I explained why he was my new favorite player.
