Drop & Drive ~ Mathewson, Ryan, Seaver Discussed by Costas & Olbermann w/1912 Photo
 
Along with an article from "Everybody's Magazine", July 1912 entitled "Everybody up". Written with Wonderful Character, this article about Prewar Baseball during the time period with all of the flamboyant cast of the day, just comes to life!

The Photo oN Page 10, iN the July, 1912 article! When I saw the Youtube of Costas & Olbermann discussing Christy's "Drop & Drive" Pitching style...(Comparing Christy Mathewson with Nolan Ryan & Tom Seaver) I knew I had seen it before! These guys mention that the Photo had never been oN Television before!? However... Like I mentioned, I knew I had seen it before, Now I know where the picture came from!

So, I Just Had To Share This With You All...

July 1912 Everybody's Magizine "Everybody up" article:

I grew uP a Met fan! And hearing Tom Seaver & Nolan Ryan being Compared to Christy Mathewson(who I have great admiration for them all!), was Something Special!
