Default OT Casey Stengel's final game? (Call this "Casey's Last Stand")
Posted By: jims

On Sat.July 24th the Mets lost to Phil 5 to 1. This was the last game that Casey ever managed. That night there was a party at Toot Shor's in Manhattan. Sometime after midnight Casey lost his balance, fell and hurt his left hip. The old timers game was scheduled for the 25th which he never attended. At a press conference on Aug 30th Casey officially retired. Info from STENGEL by Robert Creamer.
