"Mr. Spitter" Passes Away

RIP Mr Perry. I remember shaking his hand at a card show as a kid, massive hands and strong, could probably put a crease in the ball just by twisting it.

Funny but that's what I remember about the first time I saw him at a show. Watching him pitch, I never realized what large hands and arms he had. He looked more like a power hitter than a pitcher when I shook his hand.
