Default Favorite Pre-1960 Obscure Player(s)
Posted By: Bob Pomilla

Don't know that he's really "obscure", but mention must be made of Stanley "Frenchy" Bordagaray. The name, the mustache in an era when that was frowned upon and possibly my all time favorite baseball quote.

When asked his opinion of the fine he incurred, for spitting on an umpire, Frenchy replied, "Well, it was more than I expectorated".

Gotta love 'im.
