Let's not forget Orlandos father, Pedro "Perucho" Cepeda, a hard hitting shortstop known as the "Puerto Rican Babe Ruth", also known as "The Bull", ergo Orlandos moniker as the Baby Bull.

I named my 115 lb rescue German Shepherd after the great SF Giant.

RIP Baby Bull.

The Topps 1967 Orlando Cepeda is my favorite. R.I.P.

Yowza!!! Saw him at a show out here last fall and he still looked hale and hearty as he sat sipping his Jamba Juice. What a shame. Rest in peace, Baby Bull.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
