Well, you are going back to the days of the Milwaukee Braves.

Eddie Mathews......Johnny Logan.....a young Hank Aaron.....Warren Spahn......Lew Burdette. Takes us back down memory lane. To the days of Happy Days, before it jumped the shark................

Hey...don’t forget the Hurricane. Bob “Hurricane” Hazel in 57. ( his only decent year and it wasn’t even a half year).

How about Spahn was 36 in 57. He started in ‘42 then took 3 years out for military service.
Joe Adcock can’t even start for wither team.

Burdette
Buhl
Pizzaro
Phillips
Covington
Pafko
Thompson
Tanner
Roach
Littlefield
Rush
Rice
Haas

My better angel is from Milwaukee. Her brothers ? die-hards. Milwaukee Braves were “common ground” as we had Bears-Packers between us.
