I must admit I have a great weakness for this game, I hope others will want to play.

Exactly!!!! Mr. Clint Hartung. He was a $35,000 bonus baby who never lived up to the hype, obviously.
Who is the man on the right? I would hope that a 5 year old would know the other 2.

That was, of course, a softball. You are right DD!!! I just love to see Monte Irvin. That cursed broken leg in Bears Stadium in Denver trashed all hopes for a Giant repeat in' 52. A tough one and then I will go to sleep.

Well, here's my guess, Shotgun. I know STEVE RIDZIK pitched for both the Phillies and the Giants but, for the life of me, I can't remember what he looked like. On the other hand, I think utility infielder JACK LOHRKE also played for both teams. So, my guess is it's one or the other. I am not as good with orange/black and red/white as I am with royal blue/white.:waving

Very impressive RunningShoes. If you knew that without research you are a baseball prodigy. That is Hansen.

Dodger Deb, Lohrke and Hansen were BOTH traded by the Phillies to the Pirates for Murry Dickson.
