McClain on Randle, Ted Williams and '71 Senators


Denny McLain, the last pitcher to win 30 games in a major league season, was at the Normal-Schaumburg game Sunday and interviewed by Boomers broadcaster Tim Calderwood. Tim sent along a clip of the interview, during which McLain talks about playing with Lenny Randle on the 1971 Washington Senators under manager Ted Williams. The Senators were 65-94 that year, the last for the Senators before they became the Texas Rangers.

Lenny just might be a great person, a wonderful coach, and all that other stuff . However, the gesture he made toward Umpire Jim Schaly Tuesday night was both disrespectful, and a personal insult.
I don’t blame Jim for tossing him out because Lenny deserved it. You just don’t do that Lenny. To argue your point is fine but no personal, in you face, gestures.
