As a kid, I was a huge baseball card collector. The back of the card always had a short bio of the player and his career stats.

I remember getting Gibson’s card,turning it over and thinking “Holy Cow!” His stats were eye-popping. At first I thought it was a typo. Really.

See my post #35. I was a boy and had Gibson’s card too. I lived in LA and luv’d Koufax and Drysdale, but also Gibson.

Of course, as a Dodger I wanted to whack the SF Giants Juan Marichal with a bat myself.
