Stuff You’ll Like: 8-13-11

Hope you made it out to the ballpark last night…a crowd of 12,716, the seventh-largest since 1961, came out for a 7-4 Syracuse win over the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees.  Expect another packed house tonight for Syracuse Wall of Fame Night.  Six inductees will join the group of 88 – soon to be 94 – members.  A look at those six, and more links ahead:

*Tom Leo profiles the soon-to-be Wall of Fame members.

*Why Randy Knorr likes watching from the dugout.

*A recap of Syracuse’s big win last night.

*Is Jayson Werth’s season as far off from last year as it seems?

*Joe Posnanski takes an interesting look at hitting streaks.

*Is Carlos Zambrano seriously retiring?

*Dennis Rodman’s emotional Hall of Fame speech.

*And now for something completely different: The Onion on Adam Dunn.

We hope you can make it out tonight for the Wall of Fame ceremony.  If not, tune in at 6:45 to The Score 1260 for the start of our pregame coverage – or flip on the TV to Time Warner Cable Sports, where Jason Benetti and Steve Grilli have the call.  During the game, we’ll have Wall of Famers on both radio and TV.

As always, we’d love to hear from you – shoot an e-mail to kevinbrown@syracusechiefs.com, or tweet at us @ChiefsRadio.
