World War 2 vet wounded in action. Another true American hero. As far as baseball, he won more games that he lost but walked more men than he struck out

Jim liked bourbon....a lot, and he liked lots of it. But he was the hero of the Giant World Series sweep of the Indians in 1954

At age 19 jumped from a crashing B 52 into the English channel. Another American hero. At 6:2 and 180 the nick name Skinny would have seemed appropriate, except he got it during a chubby childhood

Jay—you are correct, 21 of 76. I would like to say it was a test and you passed, but just a typo on my part 😱

In his first MLB appearance in 1953 he faced 7 batters and gave up 6 runs on 4 hits, one walk, one hit batter and one wild pitch in 1/3 inning. He did not appear in another MLB game until 1957. But he was on the Phillies roster for all of 1954 because the baby bonus rule then in effect required any rookie signed with a bonus of more than $ 4000 stay on the MLB roster for 2 full years or be released. Qualters made no appearance in 1954 but was on the Phils roster all year

Frank's MLB career totals are 1 hit in 23 at bats. That is one hit more than I ever had

The totals on his 54 card, 2 games and one at bat are his totals. But he was part of the 44 Cardinals World Series team and voted a full share because of his bull pen work and work with the Cardinals pitchers

On July 5 ,1954 Bill had hit 3 homeruns in the game and came to bat in the 8th with the basis loaded. He flied out to the center field fence, with one more run scoring, giving him 8 on the game. A grand slam would have given him 11 tying the AL record. ....Digression...The NL record is 12 held by two Cardinals, Jim Bottemly and Mark Whiten. Whiten did it against the Reds on 9-7-93. I watched it happen. Hopefull Bob did too

1954 was his only MLB season. He played short stop for the Pirates while Dick Groat served in the military. Retired to San Antonio. Because Gair was such an unusual name he likely wanted to be called Roosevelt instead
