Dylan, in traction for six months, staring at the ceiling of his hospital room, must have wrestled with quite a few personal devils. When he had recuperated, he got together with his friends Garth Hudson, Levon Helm, Richard Manuel, Robbie Robertson and Rick Danko, and headed down to the basement of their Big Pink home in Wood-stock, N.Y. where the tracks for The Basement Tapes were laid down...
...Rick Wise handcuffed the Yankees on five hits for his 19th victory, his first since Sept. 3. He was relieved by Bill Lee in the eighth, when the Yankees scored...
Then, with reliever Dave Pagan pitching, Petrocelli was out at home trying to score on Rick Burleson's grounder to short, but Doyle followed with his game-winning hit off reliever Tippy Martinez.

Doug Griffin, the regular second baseman, gets injured constantly, but is a fine infielder as well. At third base, well, the less said about Rico Petrocelli the better, although some think differently. Everyone has their...
