This is from a friend, who is not on the list and here is reply, of his version
of the commercial, to the email below.
Yes, I remember the commercial. After Hondo hits the home run and touches home
plate, the catcher looks at him and asks Frank "How long have you been drinking
Nestles Quik?" Frank pinches him on the cheek and says "Since I was about your
size".

Subject: [The Washington Senators] Nestles Quik
Hi all,
I have a vague recollection of Frank Howard appearing in a TV
commercial for Nestles Quik round about 1968 or 1969. I seem to recall
the catcher taunting Frank by saying something like, "Hey, Frankie
wankie chocolate boy" before Hondo cranks one out of the park. He
circles the bases and gives the catcher a kind of a "I told you so"
look as he steps on home plate.
Did I dream this? Does anyone else remember this commercial? Anyone
have it on tape somewhere?
