Art Shamsky once came in to hit 3 HR's against the Bucco's;Cinti Reds at Crosley Field(a realstadium).Then first at bat next game hehit a HR; 4 st8at bats for HR; still riding the bench though...
Listeningto the OLD Gunner;I still remember those games.. those old Pirates could get 11 hits;not score a run...
Rememberthe "Green Weenie"
Honestly, do not know why I attribute the Palm Ball to Elroy Face; clearly the forerunner of today's closer...What would he make today; worked as a carpenter in Pa.after retiring; lol..
Remember Bob Veale...
Darned; Those Pirates of the sixties were something...
