Correction: Scott Hairston and Jerry Hairston Jr. ARE Brothers

JHJ X2

In the spirit of today’s Mail Sack episode, I have to admit that I was completely wrong when I said that Jerry Hairston Jr. and Scott Hairston weren’t related. That, as pointed out below, was untrue, they are brothers.

Scott and Jerry Hairston ARE brothers. Death to Jim Edmonds!

C-Dub

I have no idea why I thought they weren’t related, other than thinking that I’d heard that they weren’t years ago. However, now that the truth is known (to me), this doubles the number of authentic Hairstons in the majors, so today is a good day. Fans in the left field stands, beware.

Lou, I think you meant, “fans sitting 10 rows into foul territory next to the left field foul pole, beware”.

It’s silly to admit because I promise not everything on Cubscast is reported this way, but I just thought I’d heard some years ago during a game that they weren’t related. So I repeated it, like a child.

Who wants ice cream? I do.
