Happy 100th birthday to Ralph Erickson who pitched for the best team ever,the Pittsburgh Pirates, way back in 1929-30. He's the most vintage baseball player there is.Would be nice if the Bucs won the 9,000th game tonight in their major league history....anyone know of any ralph erickson cards? |

There was a big article in the Sunday New York Daily News about Ted "Double Duty" Radcliffe (he caught and pitched), a former star in the negro leagues and boyhood friend of Satchel Paige, who will turn 100 some time very soon. I believe the article said his birthday is July 7. He is the oldest known negro leaguer, and is apparently a fixture around Comisky Park, where he has a standing open invitation to attend games on the house. |

Radcliffe goes to a lot of White Sox games and has a seat in the section behind home plate. I was thrilled to meet him and his is one of the few autographs I own. |
