Well I thought I had his ZeeNut, but he just wasn't in the pile.

I think this is his only major league card, a 1931 Cubs Picture Pack card. I'm a bit of a Cardinal fan, I think this is the only card he was on individually in the majors, so it tickles me a bit to have it. He gave up 2 hits in his only inning of appearance with the Cards in 1932.

A lefty with a great rookie year, 11 and 4. He was 1 and 2 the next year, 1931. Then he was traded with HOFer Hack Wilson to the Cardinals for HOFer Burleigh Grimes.
