Jose and Ozzie Canseco 1990 A's

[@hectorlopez1069]

Twin brothers playing with each other. That is so nice.

Jim abbot was a beast with one hand pitching in the mlb. Unreal.

[@johnmongani5223]

yep Abbott did some amazing things with just one arm. Went 18-11 in 1991 for the Angels and then threw a no hitter for the Yankees in 1993 vs. Cleveland who had Kenny Lofton, Jim Thome, Manny Ramirez and Albert Belle.

The 90s those were the days. Oakland A’s forever. Best players best times. Go do your thing Jose!! Stay in there don’t give up you’re still the greatest. Enjoy life. 😎

Yes they had an outstanding team. As a Giants fan I say this. The A,s were the best franchise in baseball in 89-90 without a doubt. I knew we were in trouble playing against them in the 89 WS I was just hoping we could win ONE game and avoid the sweep. Lol

[@frankxaoz1286]

Jim was a heck of a pitcher. Anyone who didn't make it the show and still think they were good enough, remember... Jimmy only had one hand and made it and we didn't lol. Trust we were not good enough.

[@tomitstube]

they may sound a lot alike but you can definitely tell them apart. an interesting test case in just how hard it is to make the majors, twins, one has prolific mlb career while his twin brother spends his entire baseball career in the minors, independent leagues, and foreign leagues. ozzie hit 48 home runs for the atlantic league newark bears, considered on the level of AA. he was having legal troubles at the time so i don't know if he was black balled for that. he was caught juicing as well. i bet ozzie could sell a book.
