The FJ! round category had me optimistic for a solve. The clue had me lock in Clemente immediately for the 1972 portion. The 1941 portion had me needing a few seconds to get rid of any WWII thoughts and it was a nice "Aha! moment" when I realized it was of course Gehrig that completed the clue.
Susan: I knew you would be on in June, but I had forgotten it was today, so it was a nice surprise when I saw you pop up from the holding area. Sorry the game did not go better for you while congrats on getting to play on that stage again. At least you got the Terry Bradshaw clue as one of your correct responses.
Thayer won although he seemed to play as once bitten, twice shy after missing his first Daily Double. Fortunately, for him he knew the FJ! clue and did not allow Colin to complete any comeback attempt.
Fogey stumper I could not miss since I saw him play in person? Cesar Geronimo played for...THE REDS!
