Became starting Cardinals catcher in 1954 after injury to Del Rice. In one game because of intense heat neither he nor his opposing catcher Stan Lopata wore a chest protector

John- glad you are on the mend. I have tried the leaking appendix myself and agree with you that it should be avoided if at all possible

John - hope you're feeling better soon. Don't worry, if you forget about listening to your wife about something, I'm sure she'll remind you.

Powerful hitter whose weight issues kept him in mostly a back up role. Developed reputation as a clutch pinch hitter in the early 60s for the Cardinals. From a poor Polish mining family, became good friends with a teammate from a similar background, Stan Musial.

Was he a very good player who never quite lived up to the hype heaped on him when he signed as a bonus baby, or was he a player who overcame numerous physical issues in order to become one the the games best players
