Orel Hershiser of the San Antonio Dodgers
As you can see, I saw a picture of Orel Hershiser from his college days at Bowling Green State University, and I wanted to add the picture of Orel as a member of the San Antonio Dodgers. So I tweeted it.
Well then, after that it got exciting. Orel Hershiser himself liked the tweet! It is not quite as great as 1988, but it is a nice runner-up.And here is @OrelHershiser a few years later with the San Antonio #Dodgers pic.twitter.com/1NKV4CbHig— Steve “Beto” Parkhurst (@SteveParkhurst) May 15, 2020
