Daily Conlon: #165 Lefty O'Doul - In 1921 I Hit 19 Men - On Purpose
Here is today's Daily Conlon featuring card numbered 165 of Lefty O'Doul. This is the first of the "Great Stories" cards within the set, and its a woozy. Lefty talks about a time when men where men, and players worked things out on the field between themselves. They certainly didn't need the umps or the front office getting in the way.
