They really went diggin' for that.This guy has been dead for 34 years. Reminds of this bitch I've got.She digs up peanuts in the shell that somebody had growin' in the backyard like 20 years ago.This guy was before my time,but seems kind of like a Jeter type,but somebody with some years on me will chime in.

I was only a few years old when he died, but living in the Pittsburgh area all of my life I've seen endless amounts of highlights. He had a complete cannon of an arm and could run like a deer ... some of his best highlights are his spinning throws from the deep right field corner at old Forbes field. He had 3000 hits on the nose with some decent power. Since the Pirates have been so bad for the past 14 years or so they continually promote the old days of Clemente, Stargell and Mazeroski with giveaways of bobbleheads, statuettes, jerseys, etc. with their names/numbers to try to draw fans. Hey, at least we have a nice ballpark.
