Big League Stew has an update in which Jim Crane wrote back to a now-former Astros fan, about the removal of the gun from the Colt .45s throw-backs:
Crane:
Thank you for your comments concerning the Colt .45s jersey. I would like to say up front that I agree with you. Unfortunately, MLB has made this a requirement and their decisions are out of our control.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
