Here's a quick pop quiz for everyone:
Q: Who is the only active Sadies player to have a hit against Sadies in an official regular season or playoff game?
A: The great Mike Maida. On Thursday, June 26th 2008, Maida arrived late for the game versus 3 Sons and was inserted into the game immediately...as a member of 3 Sons because they were short players. He stepped to the plate without an ounce of stretching and laced his usual rocket between short and third (see dramatization photo above). By the third inning 3 Sons had their players and Maida was back wearing his Sadies orange. Yet another dramatic moment in Maida's storied career.
Someone in the stands was overheard asking the following question as Maida finished his follow through: "Is this heaven?"
Maida replied: "No, it's Waltham but I can understand how my perfect swing would make you think that."
