Jim Tobin signed 1941 Boston Braves snapshot
I recently purchased this 1941 signed snapshot of Boston Braves no-hit pitcher Jim Tobin from net54's own Lance Fittro (thecatspajamas on eBay).
Tobin's signature is pretty challenging to find on any medium, but I was very happy to add this postcard sized signed snapshot to my no-hit signature collection. In addition to Jim Tobin pitching a no-hitter on 4/27/44, he is also known as one of the better HR hitting pitchers of all time. He homered in his no-hit game in 1944 (quite a game, eh?). In 1942 Tobin hit 3 homers in one game on May 13, 1942. Tobin also hit a pinch hit two-run homer the previous day, giving him 4 homers in 5 at bats. Tobin is also credited with being one of the few pitchers to clout a game winning walk-off HR (8/12/45). Last edited by Scott Garner; 05-10-2012 at 04:37 PM.
