Louis Clark "Lou" Brock (born June 18, 1939) is an American former professional baseball player. He began his Major League Baseball career with the Chicago Cubs but, spent the majority of his career as the left fielder for the St. Louis Cardinals. Brock was best known for breaking Ty Cobb's all-time major league stolen base record. He is currently a special instructor coach for the St. Louis Cardinals. Brock was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1985.
Brock was born in El Dorado, Arkansas to a family of sharecroppers. His family moved to Collinston, Louisiana when he was two years old. While his family didn't have much money, he said that he never felt poor because,"If you don't have something, you don't miss it." Brock grew up as a fan of the Brooklyn Dodgers, the team that included Jackie Robinson, Don Newcombe and Roy Campanella. Although he didn't play in organized baseball until he reached the 11th grade, he learned much about the sport from listening to Cardinals radio broadcaster Harry Caray describe the way major league hitters stood at the plate. After attending high school in Mer Rouge, Louisiana, he received academic assistance to attend Southern University in Baton Rouge but, when a low grade in his first semester meant the possibility of losing his scholarship, he decided to try out for the school's baseball team in order to secure an athletic scholarship.
Sanford "Sandy" Koufax ( /ˈkoʊfæks/; born Sanford Braun, December 30, 1935) is an American former left-handed baseball pitcher who played his entire 12-year Major League Baseball (MLB) career for the Brooklyn/Los Angeles Dodgers (1955–1966). Retiring at the peak of his career, in 1972 he became, at age 36 and 20 days, the youngest player ever elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame .
Koufax's career peaked with a run of six outstanding seasons from 1961 to 1966, before arthritis in his left elbow ended his career prematurely at age 30. He was named the National League's Most Valuable Player in 1963. He also won the 1963, 1965, and 1966 Cy Young Awards by unanimous votes, making him the first 3-time Cy Young winner in baseball history and the only one to win 3 times when the award was for all of baseball, not just one league. In each of his Cy Young seasons, Koufax won the pitcher's triple crown by leading the NL in wins, strikeouts, and earned run average. Koufax's totals would also have led the American League in those seasons.
Richard Nelson Henley "Rickey" Henderson (born December 25, 1958) is an American former Major League Baseball left fielder who played for nine teams from 1979 to 2003, including four stints with his original team, the Oakland Athletics. Nicknamed The Man of Steal, he is widely regarded as the sport's greatest leadoff hitter and baserunner. He holds the major league records for career stolen bases, runs scored, unintentional walks and leadoff home runs. At the time of his last major league game in 2003, the ten-time American League (AL) All-Star ranked among the sport's top 100 all-time home run hitters and was its all-time leader in bases on balls. In 2009, he was inducted to the Baseball Hall of Fame on his first ballot appearance.
In addition to the career steals record, Henderson also holds the single-season record for stolen bases (130 in 1982) and is the only player in AL history to steal 100 bases in a season, having done so three times. His 1,406 career steals is 50% higher than the previous record of 938 by Lou Brock. Henderson is the all-time stolen base leader for the Oakland A's and previously held the New York Yankees' franchise record from 1988-2011. He was among the league's top ten base stealers in 21 different seasons.
Cecil Charles Cole Case, known as Box Case, born at Frome, Somerset on 7 September 1895 and died at Keyford, Frome, Somerset on 11 November 1969, played first-class cricket for Somerset as an amateur batsman between 1925 and 1935.
Case was a right-handed middle-order batsman whose batting technique, in one account, was "limited and effective". He also kept wicket very occasionally in the period at the end of the 1920s and into the 1930s when regular Somerset wicketkeeper Wally Luckes was ill. Although the Somerset side in Case's time often contained amateur players who appeared in relatively few matches, Case was virtually a regular, appearing in 255 matches for the county in 11 seasons, plus two for the Gentlemen in Gentlemen v Players games in 1931 and 1934.
Case was educated at King's School, Bruton. He was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Third Battalion of the Dorsetshire Regiment and served with the regiment throughout the First World War. In October 1918, the London Gazette reported he had been promoted to captain the previous December, but this notice was rescinded five days later. By 1919, he was on the reserve officer list. He left the army on 1 April 1920.
Dicen que la distancia es el olvido
Pero yo no concibo esa razón
Porque yo seguiré siendo el cautivo
De los caprichos de tu corazón
Supiste esclarecer mis pensamientos
Me diste la verdad que yo soñé
Ahuyentaste de mi los sufrimientos
En la primera noche que te amé
Hoy mi playa se viste de amargura
Porque tu barca tiene que partir
A cruzar otros mares de locura
Cuida que no naufrague en tu vivir
Cuando la luz del sol se esté apagando
Y te sientas cansada de vagar
Piensa que yo por ti estaré esperando
Dicen que la distancia es el olvido
pero yo no concibo esa razón,
porque yo seguiré siendo el cautivo
de los caprichos de tu corazón.
Supiste esclarecer mis pensamientos,
y me diste la ilusión que yo soñé
ahuyentaste de mi los sufrimientos
desde la primera noche en que te ame.
Hoy mi playa se viste de amargura
porque tu barca tiene que partir
a cruzar otros mares de locura
cuida que no naufragues tu vivir.
Cuando la luz del sol se este apagando
y te sientas cansada de vagar
piensa en que yo por ti estaré esperando
hasta que tu decidas regresar.
Hoy mi playa se viste de amargura……
La Baraka
C'est quand tu es entre mes bras, que tu souris
La Baraka
C'est notre vie que l'on brûle avec insouciance
La Baraka
C'est rien que toi et rien que moi dans l'existence
Et nuit et jour quand tu es là
C'est notre amour, La Baraka
La Baraka
C'est quand tu es entre mes bras, que tu souris
La Baraka
C'est notre vie que l'on brûle avec insouciance
La Baraka
C'est rien que toi et rien que moi dans l'existence
Et nuit et jour quand tu es là
C'est notre amour, La Baraka
Nul ne connaît son jour de chance
Car le destin, seul secret
Ouvre le bal, mène la danse
Pour un jour, une heure ou jamais
La Baraka
C'est quand tu es entre mes bras, que tu souris
La Baraka
C'est notre vie que l'on brûle avec insouciance
La Baraka
C'est rien que toi et rien que moi dans l'existence
Et nuit et jour quand tu es là
C'est notre amour, La Baraka
Moi j'y crois sans trop y croire
Quand tout à coup ça m'est revenu
Sans s'annoncer, sans crier gare
Dicen que la distancia es el olvido
Pero yo no concibo esa razón
Porque yo seguiré siendo el cautivo
De los caprichos de tu corazón
Supiste esclarecer mis pensamientos
Me diste la verdad que yo soñé
Ahuyentaste de mí los sufrimientos
En la primera noche que te amé
Hoy mi playa se viste de amargura
Porque tu barca tiene que partir
A cruzar otros mares de locura
Cuida que no naufrague en tu vivir
Cuando la luz del sol se esté apagando
Y te sientas cansada de vagar
Piensa que yo por ti estaré esperando
Hasta que tú decidas regresar. Te extraño
Chorus:
Tengo un mar de amor por ti
Que en el mar de amor q' es Dios
Es solo una barca pequeña
Es solo una barca pequeña
Este amooor, mi amor, mi amor por ti
Tengo un mar de amor por ti
Yo lo quiero compartir
Para no estar más en soledad oh no
Tengo claro lo que soy
Tengo claro donde voy
No soy unico testigo de mi vida, oh no
Eres mi unica herencia
Dicen que camino en abstracción
No se diferenciar lo que está bien, lo q' está mal (ohh)
Chorus (x2):
Tengo un mar de amor por ti
En el mar de amor q' es Dios
Es solo una barca pequeña, ohuhoh
Es solo una barca pequeña
Muchos hablan y no hacen nada
Y les condenan sus propias palabras
Y da lo bueno de ti sin pedir explicación
Solo importa los latidos de tu corazón
(Todo lo demás es vanidad)
(Todo lo demás es arrogancia)
Vive tu vida hermano
Vive tu vida en paz
Y tomas de la mano
Aquel siente que el mundo ha dejado atrás, oh si
Vive tu vida hermano
Vive tu vida en paz
Aqui en este mundo nadie sobra
Nadie está de más
Chorus (x2):
Tengo un mar de amor por ti
En el mar de amor q' es Dios
Es solo una barca pequeña, ohuhoh
Es solo una barca pequeña
Me contaron los abuelos que hace tiempo
navegaba en el Cesar una piragua
que partía de El Banco viejo puerto
a las playas de amor en Chimichagua.
Capoteando el vendaval se estremecía
e impasible desafiaba la tormenta
y un ejército de estrellas la seguía
tachonándola de luz y de leyenda.
Era la piragua de Guillermo Cubillos.
era la piragua.
Era la piragua. (bis)
Doce bogas con la piel color majagua
y con ellas el temible Pedro Albundía
en las noches a los remos arrancaban
su melódico rugir de hermosa cumbia.
Doce sombras ahora viejas ya no reman
ya no cruje el maderamen en el agua
solo quedan los recuerdos en la arena
donde yace dormitando la piragua.
Era la piragua de Guillermo Cubillos.
era la piragua.
Era la piragua. (bis)
La piragua.
La piragua.
La piragua.
"Sit on my lap"he says with a smile
A Kiddie-lurer is on the loose
He's on a motor-bike, in broad day light
So don't go in the dark,
alone to Ley Park
'Calle on the Galleon
while Cindy is in the Labyrinth now,
Papa & Mama
Whereever Lizet goes I don't know;
She gave me Lucky Clovers with the brightest
smile
and out love was worthwhile
Come enlight your mind;
LEY PARK FOREVER!
By the river, green
Little girl you keep your promise
Come enlight your mind;
LEY PARK FOREVER!
And now that we keep our promises
We're in Ley Park forever
Toilette Babette in my head and I smile
Your aching belly changed my life
You let me watch you
Pascalle & Babette
You let me show yours
then I will you mine
Big Star by 1994
I want to meet you, like before
Pascalle I'm at your door at last
but you don't recognize me from TV,-nor the past
and I guess that's the best
Come enlight your mind;
LEY PARK FOREVER!
By the river, green
Little girl you keep your promise
Come enlight your mind;
LEY PARK FOREVER!
And now that we keep our promises
We're in Ley Park forever
They're all grown up, a wimp for a man
and probably acting bitchy
Lost the child inside
but superficially nice
Pascalle & Babette
We're naked, hand in hand
and off to Ley Park
off to Ley Park
LEY PARK!
Come enlight your mind;
LEY PARK FOREVER!
By the river, green
Little girl you keep your promise
Come enlight your mind;
LEY PARK FOREVER!
And now that we keep our promises
