When Williams came to D.C. to manage the Senators he convinced Howard to take a strike and despite some skepticsm, it worked incredibly well. Howard&#8217;s walks increased by nearly doubled in 1969 and were up even more in 1970.<\/li><li>Playing winter ball in latin America &#8220;was like going to college again&#8221; because he got to experience another culture, eat different food and learn another language. He also indicated how much he respected Latin American ballplayers.<\/li><li>Howard hit into a triple play in his final MLB at-bat &#8212; a sign his time was up.<\/li><li>Somebody had Howard sign a photo of one of the white seats which I thought was brilliant.<\/li><li>I wish I had brought some of the Yankees yearbooks I have from the late sixties when he was a &#8220;Visiting Star&#8221; as well as the early 1990s when he was a coach with the Bronx Bombers.<\/li><li>The Maker&#8217;s rep told us about a cocktail made with Diet Peach Snapple, Maker&#8217;s and one other ingrediant. We can&#8217;t remember what it is though.<\/li><li>Washington is a good town for whiskey sales.<\/li><li>Kentucky is no longer the top state for Maker&#8217;s sales.<\/li><li>I thought it was great that the Marker&#8217;s bottles were being dipped in blue wax at the store and picked one up. I wish they had smaller bottles available so I could keep one as a souviner. I&#8217;m not going to buy 1.5 L and not open it&#8230;<\/li><li>We ran into <a href=\"http:\/\/www.misschatter.com\/janf\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"><span style=\"color: #990066;\">MissChatter<\/span><\/span><\/a>, who shot video of the event. <p><object width=\"425\" height=\"350\"><\/p> <\/li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Screech&#8217;s Best Friend<\/span> from <a href=\"http:\/\/nats320.blogspot.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Nats320<\/span><\/a> also introduced himself.
