Last Spring Training I went to was in 2000...it's been way too long! At one game I was sitting directly off the dugout and had Ken Caminiti walk over and pick up BOTH of the girls sitting next to me...haha...gave them a plastic hotel key card. He had quite the silver tongue. It was hiliarious and clear the two girls came specifically to meet ballplayers. They didn't stick around much for the game...true story. RIP Ken!

Became a full time tall tale and story teller at his bar post career. There is a neat very scarce variant of his 1960 Topps card

If you were having a house party in the early 60s in St Louis it would have been a mistake to invite Hemus, Bing Devine, John Keane and Bob Gibson all together

What's cool with seeing several examples of the same card you get to see centering trends. My Solly isn't the sharpest, but I do appreciate the centering on this one...
