Hi Frank

I recall as a kid getting an Eddie Robinson in a 1950 BOWMAN wax-pack. I will scan it when I find it.

"Red" Hoff had a very short career (3 years with the Highlanders, and one with the St Louis Americans). His career ERA was pretty good, only 2.49
He was a little guy (like me), and a Southpaw like you.

He recalled the highlight of his career was when he first faced Ty Cobb, and struck him out on 3 straight pitches (he was a 20-year old rookie then).

I acquired his autograph in the early 1990's.
