Sad, but true. Hospitals are as good a places to get infections as they are places to be cured of infections.
Hey, having grown up seeing Tommy manage since the mid 70's and seeing the only two world championships with him as manager, he's the Phil Jackson of the Dodgers to me. Tommy stick around. You might see another WS championship if you do.
