Going to ask @AlexanderRaine7, @OhhJim, @AlexanderRaine7 , and @tabletopmania to recuse themselves from this, because I know, from the bird app, they know the answer

#1947League #trivia question:

Name the team for which today's hero, Bill Byrd, was most famous for playing in real life...AND give me its correct pronunciation.

Bill Byrd's team was the Baltimore Elite (pronounced EE-LIGHT) Giants, a proud franchise from whom we will be hearing a lot in future trivia questions.

No winner yesterday, which means the song is the Commissioner's choice today. #1947League.

#1947League #SpotTheConnection answer:

The driving riff of Lou Reed's "Take a Walk on the Wild Side" inspired the driving riff of the #GratefulDead's "Franklin's Tower" (sez Wikipedia, source of ALL definitive knowledge). See if you agree:
