T206 Reference / Reflections.....Tuesday Nite Trivia
Frank....ole buddy,
You are very welcome. Casey Stengel fascinated me, when he became NY Yankees Manager in 1949. I was only 10 years old then. I could tell you many stories of how he led the Yankees to the five consecutive World Championships (1949 to 1953). Especially, when Johnny Mize single-handedly beat the Dodgers in the 1952 W.S. Furthermore, Don Larsen's PERFECT W.S. game in 1956. TED Z T206 Reference . Last edited by tedzan; 10-28-2023 at 07:08 PM. Reason: Corrected typo. |

T206 REFERENCE / REFLECTIONS.....Tuesday Nite Trivia
Quote:
SABR quote...... "Stengel’s inside-the-park home run in the ninth inning won Game One for McGraw’s Giants. The moment was immortalized by a Damon Runyon column which began “This is the way old Casey Stengel ran yesterday.” Two days later, Casey hit another home run in Game Three, giving the Giants a 1-0 victory." TED Z T206 Reference . |

Bump - a vivid reminder of the knowledge lost today.

I think we can all collectively agree that we need to preserve and carry on the grand legacy that Ted has left for us. The world has lost a heck of an individual.

I wish I had visited with Ted and Charlotte one more time... He and I had multiple common interests beyond ball cards. Ted was an intelligent, soft spoken gentleman.
