Washington held an "Eddie Yost Day" in September 1953. The Walking Man played there through the 1958 season--then another 4 seasons between the Tigers and the Angels.

I can't resist this shameless plug for this special score card (autographed by Yost) that was issued for Eddie Yost Day. I currently have it listed on eBay (with more pics) - if interested, send me a PM for a better price.
