    Agreed. Wasn't Tony Gwynn an honorary captain or something in his last year? Ripken was voted into the game, but I remember some sort of recognition for them both during the game.

    And the press, both in Seattle and Cincy, have been downright kid gloves, hands-off with him, as compared to what Ted Williams dealt with in Boston.

    Junior has been dealt with very fairly,in both Seattle and Cincinnati.
