My best baseball memories are of watching Casey's Yanks at old Old Yankee Stadium, meaning the pre-Steinbrenner fustercluck, back in the 1950s. I was a kid and he looked like he was older than sin; I never imagined that he had been young once and a ballplayer too. Supposedly Mickey Mantle was also surprised to learn he had played. "What do you think, I was born at 60?", Casey told him. Wonder if Mick ever saw his T210.
1923 NY Giants [am not 100% positive but I believe Casey is in second row second from left] Photo dated 1949 1951 Hollywood Stars scorecard Photo circa mid-1950s
