Warren Spahn final career win ticket stub
I finally found a neat ticket that I've been seeking for many years:
HOF Warren Spahn's final career win in game 2 of a doubleheader on 9/12/65 @ SF. Spahnnie went all 9 innings to book his final victory, win #363 which is still a ML record for a left-hander.
Giants HOF great Willie Mays also plated his 499th career HR in the same game.
This would prove to be the last complete game in Spahn's amazing career as he retired at the end of the 1965 season.
363 career wins and he fought in the Battle of the Bulge- wow!
What an amazing life...
