Remembering when the Office ran afoul of Mr. and Mrs. Preston Hanna

It all started with a rather innocuous post introducing Preston Hanna as one of the 20 worst Atlanta Braves pitchers of all time. A no-brainer, considering Hanna’s 4.49 ERA and 1.635 WHIP in 389 IP with the Bravos.

That prompted Office loyalist Roadrunner48 to share a cherished memory of the Pensacola native:

I remember standing outside of the West Palm Beach ballpark after a game, and seeing him and (former C Bill) Nahorodny, both clearly drunk, stumble out with two very homely women (the groupies were a grim looking crew). Hanna said something unpleasant to a little kid who asked for an autograph, brushing off his request.
