About the only thing I've personally witnessed that was louder is a nitromethane burning NHRA fuel car.<br /><br />Thanks for everything, JJ. I hope you stick around the organization in some capacity, because if not, you will be missed.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00054848530005463375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-57863019891629892352017-09-25T09:31:55.357-04:002017-09-25T09:31:55.357-04:00Great post.

Hardy gets forgotten in the shuffle for a lot of O's fans, as his contribution to this team in the last seven years has mostly (until the last couple of years) involved going to work and doing a solid but unspectacular job. For a team who has mostly succeeded in the last half decade by not having black hole positions and getting positive value at each position without star production, Hardy is the posterchild of that. The Orioles wouldn't have made this run from 2012-2017/18 without J.J. Hardy.Dustinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09749400957192021859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-85842329025305970492017-09-23T06:34:15.615-04:002017-09-23T06:34:15.615-04:00Delmon's Double.

And then the brilliant slide by Hardy. What a game.

All of us fans appreciate what Hardy has done for the O's.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
