This article has a couple problems. 1) The comment "Basically, Mike Bacsik just can't throw a baseball" (speaking about his son) is very POV and doesn't belong for that reason, if not others. 2) I don't think it is too notable that he pitched to Hank Aaron at 755. Aaron already had the record and didn't extend it againt him. It's only relevance is that his son gave up 755. Not that this wouldn't belong in a longer article as part of trivie, but this little tidbit that he failed to give up a homerun makes up half his page. Failureofafriend 03:23, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Not a senior

He and his son are both "Mike Bacsik" but the elder Bacsik is "Michael James Bacsik" and the younger is "Michael Joseph Bacsik." Therefore, the father is not "Mike Bacsik Sr." and the son is not "Mike Bacsik Jr." Page has been moved accordingly to eliminate this erroneous information. Steviedpeele 17:38, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
