I've shown/posted this quite a few times here, Lucas, but I'm unsure if you have seen it based on your join date?
A pic of my Uncle Sam with his friend Norm and Dizzy Trout with Mickey Mantle at the 1958 World Series.

![]() My Uncle Sam and Aunt Eileen lived in Pontiac Michigan so a drive to Milwaukee wasn't terribly far for him. Both have been gone for many years now but I will always be curious how Uncle Sam and Dizzy Trout became friends? I found the original photo, or what I believe is the original photo, in a book she had sent along with the picture. Uncle Sam passed before Aunt Eileen so she sent some items home to me when my mother and father visited her before she moved to California to live with her daughter. Her son in law was James D Buchanan who was the producer/writer for Charlie Angel's and a few other shows over the years so I was happy she was able to live her remaining years in comfort and warmth.

Here's a couple snapshots of Minnie Minoso from spring training, 1950, in Tucson, AZ. In the second one, he's pictured with Larry Doby and Luke Easter. The three roomed together away offsite due to segregation.

I was able to acquire these from the Albert Pujols Family Foundation. It early in the 2006 baseball season and Albert was absolutely on fire. His foundation announced that they would be selling 10 (I think) signed pair of game used batting gloves from the 2005 season. I was online waiting for the exact moment they went on sale and made the purchase. My payment went through but they were sold out. I can't remember if I made the phone call or I received a phone call....but I was able to talk to Todd Perry, the head of his foundation and he apologized that I was number 11 and that they only had 10 pair. Since my payment went through he promised me that in a few days he would talk to Albert and he would get me a pair but it would have to be from 2006. That was not a problem at all because he actually alluded that the gloves would be from early in 2006. Albert Pujols just happened to break the all time April home run record with 14. These gloves are most likely from April 2006.
I was able to match the exact same style and slightly possibly the same gloves on his 2007 Topps card. I designed the display and had it made. It hangs in our bedroom.
