Cool Vintage Card of the Week



Earl Battey:

Battey was a four time All-Star catcher and a key player on the Minnesota Twins 1965 World Series team. A great fielder, Battey won three Gold Glove Awards. Battey received the most votes by an American Leaguer for the 1965 All-Star Game.

On August 26, 1962 Battey caught Jack Kralick's no-hitter.
