My favorite memory of is of him getting tossed from a Yankee-Oriole game before it started. It was after Frank Robinson caught what was sure to be a walk off homer by Roy White to end the first game of a doubleheader. Robby went over the short fence in right and into the stands as he caught it. Houk argued the catch and kept it up during the lineup exchange for the second game and got the thumb. Fun stuff.Commishbobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18069472376708715755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570379968514063657.post-10137251174799371202013-06-02T04:41:51.388-07:002013-06-02T04:41:51.388-07:00I love Houk.
