Three returns(with one coming in a box!!) made this title seem appropriate..
1) Johnny Schmitz 3/3 with 1 IC
Schmitz, 90, is another one of those great Brooklyn Dodger TTMers. All Star in '46 and '48 .Signed 2 reprint cards and an IC..
2) The box!! from a trade with Mort, I received
Vida Blue OMLB
mort is excellent to work with..Glad to add the former MVP and WS Champ
3) This one is probably my favorite..We always wonder if or how many players read our letters..well it is always refreshing to know first-hand it was read...One of my relatives, Bobby Winkles, was the third base coach for the White Sox for a few years during LaRussa's tenure there. I wrote about that in my letter and how this was for my nephew, etc...Got back in about 10 days
Tony LaRussa w To Clayton, Best Always, 5X Mgr of Year, 2X WS Champs
& "Winks is a great man!"
Also of note: For those that ask LaRussa to inscribe Mgr of Year..he will write 5x even though he is only 4X by Baseball Writers. he will include the MOY by Associated Press from '96..just an fyi for future reference...
thanks again for reading
