focused on another great moment in baseball history the other night. as usual, it involved a pitcher and a batter. however, this was no ordinary batter. this is eddie gaedel (uniform no. 1/8) and the rookie of the only man to pitch to him bob cain. fittingly enough, both cards arrived today!
another thing I liked about this story is that bob cain was the only person in mlb to attend gaedel's funeral, who suffered a terrible death/tragedy. side note: eddie gaedel is one of the few autographs that actually meet or exceed babe ruth's! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddie_Gaedel
