Today I am showing you a ticket from my “birthday.” Brooks had a pretty good game on my birthday 60 years ago today…Sunday, 23 August 1964. The Orioles played a double header against the White Sox in Chicago and lost the first game 3-1 with Brooks going 1 for 3 with a Run, RBI and BB. The scorecard shown is from game 1 as indicated at the top of the cover and scoring information. In the 2nd game the Orioles won 7-3. Brooks had 5 AB, 3 hit, 0 RBI, 2 Run and a BB. His average was .308 with an OPS of .859. This of course was Brooks’ MVP year.
Charlie,

So cool! Thanks for sharing and hope you have a wonderful birthday!
