I got to meet Mr. Wambsganss one time. He had to have been close to 90 already. It was at a Yankees-Indians game at old Cleveland stadium. My guess it was around 1985. It was old timers day. He sat behind home plate that afternoon. My cousin and I went up, introduced ourselves and got his autographs. I say that in plural form because he signed a ball for me "Bill Wamby" and the program "Bill Wambsganss". Pretty cool memory!
