Mitchell wasn't the only Nebraskan to make an out in that triple play...Otto Miller was tagged out running from first.


Clarence Mitchell prior to a spring training game in New Orleans

In about nine years, when your son is older, you could add Fritz Peterson and Mike Kekich to the list.

Well,

If you want some modern players whose cards would be easier to find and not cost too much, you could go after the players who have either admitted to taking steroids and/or banned PED's or those suspected of doing so.

This would allow you to have future Hall of Fame players, super stars, MVP's, tragiedies (Ken Caminiti SP?) along with regular guys who were just trying to get an edge to either make it to the Big Show or stay in the Majors a little longer.

You could use these guys as examples of what NOT to do and as a teaching tool. I have tried to do this with my Nephews (though I don't know how successful I have been since they consider it "preaching" to them).

Just an idea,

David

I don't think this one was mentioned : Ray Caldwell

I believe he was struck by lightning on the pitchers mound during a game, and went on to finish the game.
