I added the three Bob's today to my 72 set. I am getting to the point where I will need two binders for my 72 set. With all the variations and variations of variations, I am thinking this set will never be considered done as it pertains to a master set. I'm good......
Cheers B.T.

Tim McCarver, who joined the Cardinals in the same time frame as Gibson but was a little behind him in starting, told a story about going to the mound in 1963 after Gibson had walked a couple of batters and seemed agitated to "calm him down". Before he could say anything Gibson told him, "McCarver, get your ass back behind the plate. The only thing you know about good pitching is that you can't hit it"

Bob Gibson was a seriously imposing figure when he took the mound. I loved watching him in 68 World Series. When the mounds were higher than they are now, he just looked un-hitable to this 8 year old kid at the time.
