• mccoey01: Keep an eye on Phillies' Dominic Brown. This kid's gonna be good....

First, Coley pointed me to a funny tweet courtesy of ESPN.com’s Jerry Crasnick:

Phils special asst. Charlie Kerfeld just came up to me in the lobby. “I have a question for you,” he said. “What the heck is a Twitter?”

Prior to this, I had no idea that Charlie Kerfeld was working as a special assistant to Ruben Amaro, Jr. But I’m glad he’s still around the game. Why? Because his name will always remind me of that drunken totally normal interview he gave during the celebration following the Astros clinching the NL West pennant in 1986. Enjoy.
