| Kudos to the site http://www.krispaulw.com/ for sharing this great 1983 TCMA card. I remember retirees in the 1980s loving to sign such obscure images. |
Numbers tell only part of the story. Stats are limited.
Eldred “Bud” Byerly was born Oct. 26, 1920 in Webster Groves, Missouri. What do you ask a 90-year-old former pitcher? I wanted to know how it felt to debut for the nearby Cardinals in 1943, then participate in a World Series championship a year later.
Byerly responded:
“The Cardinals were my favorite team and Dizzy Dean was my idol.
So living in in St. Louis was great.
A couple dozen friends and family attended the games.”
