Peter Gammons has an interesting blind item in his ESPN blog (Insider status req.):
The reason the 2002 All-Star Game ended up tied was that a pitcher on one of the two teams was imbibing in the clubhouse and was not in condition to pitch, hence the game ended.
Things were going so well for Northwest native Harold Reynolds: he played twelve strong seasons at second base for the hometown nine, leading the league in stolen bases, triples, and at-bats in various years. In fact, he's the only guy to lead the league in steals in the 1980s other than Rickey Henderson. He was a two-time All-Star, and a Roberto Clemente award winner in 1991.
