Richie Ashburn... oh memories. He played center field for the Phillies in the first major league game I ever went to. It was at Forbes field back in 1955. Robin Roberts pitched for the Phillies and the big stars for the Pirates then were Ted Kluzuski and some young kid from Puerto Rico that the Pirates stole from the Dodgers. His name was Roberto Clemente.
I think Ashburn hit .350 one year. Big Klu cut off his sleeves so he could show off his guns. Clemente died in a plane crash on a relief mission to the Dominican Republic. Robin Roberts was amazing. He had six straight 20-win seasons and one year was 28-7.
