Yeah, Morgan tried to insert himself into history where he didn’t belong. What player doesn’t remember the year he broke into the bigs?

Morgan’s correction was so lame. Here is a guy reciting statistics and anecdotes on a regular basis to the point of being obnoxious, and we are expected to believe that he couldn’t even remember the year when he first made it to the major leagues? He is so self-absorbed, there is no way he could forget a “minor” detail, such as the year he first reached the major leagues.

If anyone believes him, I have some Florida swampland or a bridge that connects Brooklyn and Manhattan for sale.

Nobody is doubting that Joe had an RBI single against the Phillies in 1963. He was claiming it occurred during the Phillies collapse in 1964, thereby making it sound as though he was part of their historic downfall.

I am far from a Morgan fan but a little research (all of about 60 seconds) shows that Morganâ€™s first MLB hit was v Philadelphia in his second MLB game. It was a RBI single that won the game. here is the link to the game info.
