Paul Skenes Superfractor Ends in Goldin

Spahn was funny too. He gave up Mays' first homer, apparently a titanic blast. Afterwards the press asked him what happened. He allegedly said, well, for the first 60 feet it was a helluva pitch. I saw him once at a card show late in his life. He looked for all the world just like an everyday guy.

In the late 70s I attended a day game at Wrigley and that evening the Yankees were playing in Milwaukee. We made it to Milwaukee in time and got decent seats. Before long we realized that sitting behind us was Warren Spahn. He looked for all the world just like an everyday "older" guy.

He looked like an everyday older guy by the time he was in his early 40's.
