Which is why we always need to remind folks of 1969, that this is June, and the June swoon can still happen (albeit unlikely). We found this Leo Durocher story, told by Vince Lloyd, on You Tube about "the Lips" problems with Don Kessinger.

There's some swearing here, so keep the volume down if you're at work.
