Benny was a coach for the Phillies until 1958. I got his autograph in 1957. I’ve never heard it mentioned here, but The Diary of Myles Thomas is a fascinating behind the scenes look at the 1927 Yankees, whom Thomas pitched for and was the roommate of Benny Bengough. Much of the diary concerns Babe Ruth off the field in the 20s. Who knew that Babe played the saxophone? I didn’t.
