FS-1965 Houston Baseball Pass-historically significan
Very cool pass owned by Clark NEAL on who was the Houston post beat writer for the astros... can't say for sure that he was in the press box during these dates, but based on the significance of each date it's likely he was...
2/7: satchel Paige throws the first pitches of the dome to test the air quality... he dubs the place "a pitchers heaven"
4/9: astros hold an exhibition against the Yankees to open the park up. Mickey Mantle gets the first hit and homer in in the astrodome.
9/15: Willie Mays clubs his 500th homer at the astrodome.
Very cool piece
