He is staying in a condo that I had to do a repair on. worked 15 minutes talked for hours. realy nice guy he and his brother are the only two brothers to combine for a no hitter.
Had a realy cool story about Bob Gibson and others.
Were do yall get these guys addresses there must have been 30 envelopes on the counter asking for his auto.
I would like to try to build a auto set.

He and his brother are the only two brothers to combine for a no hitter.
Minor clarification, he and Rick combined on a shutout against the Dodgers at Wrigley Field in 1975, the only brothers to do that. I remember that I read one time that Steve Stone said he never got to eat at the Cubs game day food spread because he was always behind the Reuschel brothers :).

Harvey Meiselman has a sports address list you can buy for each sport. Don't remember his website at the moment.

he is a big man until I met him never heard of him. I think I collect because I believe I am the best ball player you never heard of.
he actualy lived the dream and retired comfortably from playing a game. I have to install some tile in his bathroom .
another story he told me was his brother at a home game was boood for striking out Hank Arron?.
I will happily listen to any story he will tell me.
Leon Lett lives next door biggest man I have ever met?

Forgot how solid of a pitcher his brother was. Looking at his stats, if he was on a different series of teams he might have garnered some HOF consideration.

But I'll always remember Rick Reuschel as the guy who served up the golf ball to Bo in the 1989 All-Star game...Awesome!
