Ducky Wucky Medwick has to be one o the great nicknames of all time, although I have read that he didn’t like it.

I also think he is the only Cards HOF without his number retired, need to fix that.

I want to get that 1939 LaSalle for $895! Great deal! I’m sure it runs great!

Ducky was the LAST National Leaguer to win the Triple Crown, 1937.
