In 1966, a fresh-faced. twenty year old kid arrives on the baseball scene, and puts the immortal Sandy Koufax on the shelf, when he beats the icon, in his last baseball appearance; Game three of the World Series, 17 years later, he's beating Hall Of Famer, Steve Carlton in game three of the 1983 World Series. In between those amazing book ends, Jim Palmer became the most consistent, and dominant pitcher, in the American League, during the 1970's. Beset by arm injuries early in his career, his career seemed stalled to the point, where he contemplated giving up the whole pitching thing, and becoming a position player. However, through the coaxing and prodding, of an adversarial manager, with whom he incessantly and publicly feuds with, he becomes one of the all-time greats. #JimPalmer #Cakes #MoeWiesen #PollyKIger #MaxPalmer #HarryDalton #CalRipkenSr #JimBouton #SandyKoufax #EarlWeaver #DaveMcNally #MikeCuellar #PaulBlair #JockeyUnderwear
