Here's a nice pic of the then tallest and shortest men in the world. The short guy died shortly thereafter, however. As do many extremely wee fellows, like this bloke:
Nelson de la Rosa, or as otherwise known, Little Pedro. Past tense now, sadly. Pedro brought him along during the Sox's historic 2004 run as his personal good luck charm. Now that's a posse in full effect.
Manny didn't want a little Manny to keep up with Pedro?
ReplyDeleteManny fully incorporated Little Manny into himself in a voodoo ceremony some time ago; the process didn't take completely, however, and the result was the fused being, "L'il Manny", who was prone to childish outbursts, among other eccentric behaviors.
ReplyDeleteLike a living asterisk!
ReplyDelete"The Living Asterisk" would be a good super-villain name, methinks.
