Back in August/Sept pick up thread I posted the clock I aquired that was given to Phil Niekro in 1969 by the Braves 400 Club for being their pitcher of the year(re-posted photos below). Well I decided to contact the Braves 400 Club to see if they had any info on the presentation. They were able to send me a picture of Niekro recieving the clock at what they call their Gameboree. Also said that the reason they gave him a clock was that he was "accused of taking naps between innings and the alarm clock is supposed to wake him up in time for the next inning."
