When I attended Fresno High, Fresno City College and Fresno State (yes that is a trend) it always seemed that the baseball teams were doing a lot more then either the Football or Basketball teams. It seemed natural that such people as Dick Elsworth, Dick Selma and of course Tom Seaver would be develop into major league stars. When you have two pitchers who played in high school and then went on to not just the majors but the same World Series winning New York Mets team. I have followed this years Fresno State team with a hope that they would do well never expecting them to do great. This is just the start of more great years. You will also see stars from this team on the rosters of major league teams and following the greats from Fresno to the top of the profession and maybe join Tom Seaver in the hall of fame.
I wore my Bulldog shirt today as my sign of respect for the players who were praised in the press and all of the other members of the team including the managers and those who will never be mentioned but kept the team going.
