Fantastic piece on a pioneer of sports journalism. Lisa Saxon and Claire Smith deserve a bouquet a day from all of us, but dont forget a tip of the cap to players like George Hendrick and John Candelaria, for moments like this: The meeting was brief, and the message was simple: Lisa, from here on in, youre not fighting alone. To get to you, Reggie (Jacksons) gonna have to come through us. Were tired of watching it. And at the ballpark that night, Reggie tried to come after me, screaming [about the story]. And sure enough, here comes Hendrick and Candelaria, tall and imposing. To get to her, youre gonna have to go through us. Reggie got so mad. He took his fist and banged it into the wall. And thats why he had a hurt hand for the playoffs that year.
