Game Front
Enjoy...

Incidentally Tony & Guy, there are already 138 more ready for the next update.

I am not quite sure why but those Astros uniforms and the Colt .45 jerseys are two of my all time favorites.

[okcochise]

Yes, Colt .45s was always my favorite along with the Milwaukee Braves of the 50s. I was able to buy one of each over the past few years. Others I may still add to my collection is the '69 Expos and Pilots but cant seem to find the Expos for that season and just havent gotten the Seattle one.

Can our members post photos of two of the oldest living major league baseball players who are celebrating birthdays this week?
Connie Marrero is the oldest living major leaguer and he turned 101 yesterday April 25. He was a star pitcher for Cuban national teams, who resisted the lure of coming to America for many years but finally pitched five years in the majors (1950-1954) and even was a 1951 American league All-Star. Connie's major leagues debut came just days before his 39th birthday and he pitched until age 43 in the majors. He lives today in Havana, Cuba.
Virgil Trucks is listed by Wikipedia.org as the 10th oldest living major leaguer and his 95th birthday is today, April 26. Trucks was 177-136 in the majors between 1941 and 1958. He was an all-star twice, a 20 game winner once (1953) and a 19 game winner twice. In 1952 while still with the Tigers, he pitched two no-hitters (against the Senators and the Yankees). He returned from two years of World War Two service in the Navy to start the pennant clinching game on the last day of the 1945 season and four days later pitched a
4-1 complete game victory for Detroit over the Cubs in Game Two of the World Series. If that wasn't cool enough, he is also the uncle of Derek and Butch Trucks of the Allman Brothers (Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame group). Apart from his baseball career, Virgil has lived all his life in Alabama and Florida.
Let's see if our members can post some nice photos of Mr. Trucks from all his major league stops: the Detroit Tigers, St. Louis Browns, Chicago White Sox, Kansas City Athletics, and New York Yankees.
