Kirk Gibson is not our guy

Just watched the "Gibson Homerun" Beyond the Glory episode. So I can't believe I would write that title, but how can Tommy send up a banged up Gibson to face the best closer ever. I really think the Dave Anderson was the better call in that situation. Gibby just got lucky on a hanging slider. 1988 was a magical Dodger year, Orel, Gibson, Mickey Hatcher, Scioscia a great bunch of working man players. Oh the memories. Here is hoping that the 2009 edition of the Boys in Blue can bring back a little of that excitement, and oh yea the WS title that is now long overdue.
