Pete Runnels was my favorite Washington Senator when I was a kid. It broke my heart when, on January 23, 1958, the Senators traded Runnels to the Boston Red Sox, where he proceded to have the 5 best years of his career, for Albie Pearson & Norm Zauchin. Despite this heartbreak, being an avid collector of Runnels cards and memorabilia, I had to acquire this executed 1958 trade document when the opportunity became available:
