I agree, Ted.

I posted this before but for those that didn't know, Johnny Sain was the first pitcher Jackie Robinson faced in his MLB debut and he also has the distinction of being the last pitcher Babe Ruth faced in organized ball.

Also, between himself and Warren Spahn, who were one of the best dynamic duos ever, a famous poem was born because of them and it goes like this.

First we'll use Spahn
then we'll use Sain
Then an off day
followed by rain
Back will come Spahn
followed by Sain
And followed
we hope
by two days of rain.

Anyways, here are my 2 copies. A graded black back correct bio and Page bio black back that I likely should get graded...
