1920...
On October 10, six years later, Ol' Pete got the save, helping Jesse to win game 7 of that 1926 World Series, the Cardinals' first Championship. https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1696477688 On with a tip of the cap to Leon's quarter, here's an 1847 quarter. Thanks for posting that article, Michael. |
Love it Frank. Thanks for sharing the pair and the coin!
