Hmmm…parhaps an ancestor of Oakland’s Joe Blanton? Until hearing Joe’s surname, I’d never heard it before, and until reading this column, I’d never heard it anywhere else.

This is one of my favorite blogs ever. Just hit the rigth spot today.
1) I did not know about Cy Twombly the baseballer. Did Cy Twombly the painter know about him? Were they related?

2) This exhaustive exploration of Cys may be unprecedented. It needs to find wider distribution.

3) The current Cyless span may have some kind of correlation with global warming. Or Republican malfeasance. I must explore this further.

“Roy De Verne ‘Rube’ ‘Cy’ Marshall” is some kind of beautiful intersection of heretofore skew lines in baseball monickers. Nice find!
