Foolish me. And here I thought it had something to do with the
fact that they were hitting against Wakefield, who had no "kncukle"
to his ball that day, and Otto, who has no stuff. I wonder if
Reggie gave the same pep talk and instruction to the rest of the
lineup, who also suddenly came alive those two games.
