Default 1952 PONY World Series COLOR Clip w Paul Waner Joel Horlen

Very cool 5 minute video clip (in color) of the inaugural 1952 PONY League World Series championship game. You'll see HOFer Pittsburgh Pirates Paul Waner: Gasoline ignited on the field during a rain delay!! Houston Colt 45's Mike White hitting big home run. And, White Sox and Oakland A's Joel Horlen pitching the final 3 outs of the championship game, then being carried off the field on the shoulders of his teammates.

Maybe the most interesting chapter in Horlen's biography describes San Antonio's unbelievable run to the 1st PONY League title.
