This HAD to be a player right?

Dusty revisits the Dusty era:

And losing his job wasn't the worst insult. Not even close.

"At the very end, somebody took a dump right where I stood in the dugout every day," Baker said Monday morning. "That was the low point. The grounds crew guy cleaned it up. He said, 'Oh, I think it's dog crap.' I said, 'No it ain't. That's human crap.'"

Baker said Monday's interview was the first time he had discussed the incident publicly. He doesn't know who the perpetrator was. The episode occurred around the same time that Baker received menacing — and often racially charged — letters and telephone calls. But Baker, now the Cincinnati Reds manager, has moved on.

OK, which player left Dusty a special package?

This is a truly amazing quote.

Once Dusty finds out it was Packer he'll think it was hilarious.

I had the same thought.

"It was an act of love."

"What fake doggie poo poo?"

Yes, but who is the REAL OWNER?

I think the players liked playing for Dusty. My guess is that Ron Santo did it. Unintentionally.

Pat Hughes did it. During the 5th.

This is a truly amazing quote.

This makes me way happier than can be considered sane.

This makes me disappointed that I didn't get in on it.

I can't believe Dusty took a dump, didn't even cop to it, and then made the groundskeeper clean it up.

And you guys all laughed at the Ricketts for making the bathrooms a priority.
