Richie Ashburn drag bunting (circa 1951). Richie was fast going to 1st base......only 3.0 seconds.
I asked Richie this when I got this photo autographed: " Richie.... who was the fastest going down the line to 1st base ? "
Richie replied..... " Every year during the 1950's, the sportscasters would time Mickey Mantle (batting Left-handed) and I
with a precision stop-watch. Both of us did it in exactly 3.0 seconds. "
