5.23 - Chuck Klein (OF, Phillies)

Great pick. Couldn't take him because I already had a Phillie.

Thanks. I was counting on that... what I wasn't counting on was you taking my other pick (Campanella) in the process.

 

[Spartans Rule]

Anyone want to trade up? Feels like a larryplateau.

Klein was the hitter I had typed in earlier, somewhat regret not taking him now.Frank Baker is ####### awful though, so you hit .500 there.

Probably using him in the wrong spot in the line-up. Did you consult Koya?

Oso, now that I know you are local, we should band together and create the greatest cheat sheets ever seen. Or just drink more, really, your call.

 

[Frostillicus]

Don Wilson, ASTROS. I have no idea who this is.

Wilson's professional career began after he graduated from Compton Community College in Compton, California

On June 18, 1967, Wilson no-hit the Atlanta Braves 2–0 at the Astrodome. The no-hitter was the first ever pitched either in a domed stadium or on artificial turf. Along the way, he struck out 15 batters, including Hank Aaron for the final out.

In 1968, Wilson set the Astros club record for single-game strikeouts with 18 against the Dodgers.

On January 5, 1975, Wilson died at his Fondren Southwest Houston home he shared with his wife, daughter and son. Wilson was found in the passenger seat of his brown Ford Thunderbird inside the garage with the engine running. The garage was attached to the house, which caused his son, Alex, to die also and his daughter and wife to be hospitalized in a coma. The official cause of death states that Wilson's death was accidental.

Calvin "Cal" Ripken

Ripken is perhaps best known for breaking Lou Gehrig's record for consecutive games played, a record that had stood for 56 years and many deemed unbreakable.
