Mantle hurt his shoulder in the 1957 World Series and wasn't able to hit as well left handed after that.
I am going to have to go watch the show. I love the card collection. Below is a near set I once owned--bought it for the Mantle and pieced out/am piecing out the remaining cards. I could only imagine being a kid back then and the excitement of watching these guys play.
