OLD SACHEM | from page 10 Scott. When a sportswriter asked if he minded being blackballed, Lee replied, “I’ll go down in history with a lot of people who’ve been blackballed.” Responding to an additional question, his reply was “Oh, I’ll never be out of baseball for good, it’s my life.” Bill Lee hadn’t given up baseball, and baseball hadn’t given up on him. He played semipro, a single season with the Senior League in Florida with a group of former major leaguers, in Venezuela, and up in Canada with Moncton, New Brunswick, as first-baseman and pitcher for the Moncton Mets. He announced plans with his second wife, Pamela, to move to Burlington, Vermont, and in 1987 announced a plan to run for President of the United States for the Rhinoceros Party. As you know he didn’t win. His nickname “Spaceman” was given to him by Red Sox infielder John Kennedy. Lee had much to say about the world to journalists, defending Maoist China, population control, Greenpeace and school bussing in Boston. In the 1975 World Series, Bill got upset over an umpire’s call and threatened to bite off the umpire’s ear. He then asked the American public to write letters to the Commissioner demanding that the game be replayed, which could have won the Sox the World Series. For Rent AVAILABLE NOW! 1 Bedroom Apt.

June 2008 saw him pitching for the Alaska Goldpanners during the annual Midnight Sun baseball game at night during the Summer Solstice. In September 2010 Lee pitched 5 2/3 innings for the Brockton Rox, as a member of the Canadian-American Association of Professional Baseball, and was the winning pitcher. On October 8, 2011, he participated in the “100 Innings of Baseball Game” run by the Boston Amateur Baseball Network to raise money for ALS. In August he pitched a nine-inning complete game for the San Rafael Pacifics, beating the Na Koa Ikaika Maui squad by the score of 9-4. His bat and uniform was donated to the Baseball Hall of Fame because he now had the record of the oldest pitcher to make a starting appearance and pitch a complete game, and to earn a win in a professional baseball game. He appears a lot on radio talk shows and is also a regular coach at the Annual Red Sox Fantasy Camp run by the Red Sox organization in Florida at the Spring Training Facility. Lee also released his own wine label, “Spaceman Red,” a California syrah, cabernet and petite syrah blend that is distributed throughout New England. A final quote from the Spaceman. “You have two hemispheres in your brain – a left and a right side. The left side controls the right side of your body and the right side controls the left half. It’ a fact. Therefore, left-handed pitchers are the only people in their right minds.” —Bill Lee in “Boston Red Sox and the Meaning of Life.” (Mark Rucker, MVP Books, May 3, 2009, Page 163).
