100 years ago today, August 26, 1924, Alex Kellner was born. He won 20 games in 1949 pitching for a bad team. Alex has a losing record for his career due to pitching for bad teams. That's why he is relegated to being a common in all the cards sets. I knew Ozzie Van Brabant's son. Ozzie had a cup of coffee with the Philadelphia Athletics, who were awful during this early 1950s time frame. One name mentioned was Alex Kellner, who Ozzie thought could have been a very good pitcher on a better team.
