Guest Guest Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 Jason "Tugboat" Lyke was a playground legend at Harry L. Very good call.

Guest Guest Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I am so jealous, I couldn't make it. Remember the two handed over the head foul shots? Hahah! Yes I do! Playing at Greensfield (Northtside Park) back in the 80's with him I really do! And the crazy part was he made most of them with that technique! If you get a chance to get up to the Hall, the Jason Lyke collection will be on display up there thought the holidays and until about the 1st of the year according to Hall of Fame curator Tom Shieber. It's on the 2nd floor just around the corner form the Jackie Robinson display They also have: *His 30' Silver with Orange striping Adirondack aluminum Little League bat he used to hit a HR off Mike Washington of Moose in a pivotal June 1985 game. *All of his catching gear from his Little League Days *A nice color photo of Tug on Don Dutter's lawn tractor with Mr. Dutter in the background with his signature pipe in mouth *Locks of Tug's blonde hair *The final ball from the game in which LIONS defeated Zopp's for the West division in a game during the '86 season hurled by Dave Barvinchak, but Tug caught the entire game and went 3-4 that day and 4 RBI's. *The base from his only career stolen base against Kitchens Int'l whom he stole of Steve Kalka. Get up there if you can. It's like taking a trip down J.C Little League memory lane. I think the week between Christmas and New Years, Tug will be signing along with former teammate Bob Deyo.

Do they happen to have the sheet of skin that came off of M.J.s thumb after being hit by a Moschak fastball? Or that classic picture of Jack Stilloe and Tug drinking a beer after a game at the flagpole? By the way, that stolen base should have been a passed ball, Kalka got the signs crossed up. Do they happen to have the Barkman brothers vintage wildcat jackets up in that wing?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they happen to have the Barkman brothers vintage wildcat jackets up in that wing?? Official scorer Pete Dobransky still to this day says it was a stolen base. It's still debated on bar stools across the village as to what the proper call should have been. Elmer's jacket is there but his brother refused to part ways with his. Rumor is he placed it in Don Dutters casket at his wake but that is not confirmed, nor denied by the Dutter family. I saw a score card from the no hitter John Gaughn hurled against Moose up there. There was also a ball that Chris White hit into the pool off Jim Iitterly is on display as well. Was hoping to see some more jerseys up there but at least I got to see Perry Green's, Mike Holberts, Renny Spencers and Kevin Newmans just to name a few.

Remember the 1988 homerun chase between Bob Farrell and Nate Zelesnikar? I think Nate took it by one, 9 to 8. Baseball historians claim that HR chase is what brought people back to baseball after the Little League strike of 1984. Any video documenting the classic arguments Jingles would incite with his horrible umpiring? I think you are right about Bill Barkman placing his jacket on the casket. They are debating whether or not to include that part in the upcoming movie "Dutter" from what I hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are debating whether or not to include that part in the upcoming movie "Dutter" from what I hear. I was in my last year of Pony league playing on United Auto when the chase was going on and as we all know crowds at Poplar Field paled in comparison to that of Don Dutter field, but that summer was a magical one as both parks were packed on a nightly basis, both feeding off each other. I remember Dave Reynolds on then Marine Midland crushing a bomb off of Kevin Newman of J.C Police the same night Zelesnikar went yard over on the other field. Jingles umped at JC? Interesting because I don't recall, not saying he didn't of you are wrong but I guess I was too young and naive to recall. I do remember Stan Ziemba of Quick's/Partners Insurance led the league in ejections every year with a close second to Bill Barkman of Glenwood/L.T. Stan would then proceed to the area behind home plate between the concession stand and the visitors dugout while berating the umps even more. Classic. Right next to that sweet water fountain that either never shut off or on for that matter. Saw this summer that whole area is closed off now. That's was one of my favorite parts of going to L.L games back then, stockpiling up on Lolli's and sweedish fish just to watch parents harass umps and see Zeimba get tossed. Who was casted to play Don Dutter in "Dutter"? Any clue? Word on the street is it's either Jean Luc Picard or Ben Kingsley. Both fine choices. I know they are asking Joe Torre to play Stan Ziemba for a few cameo roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
