We remember Jim Wynn, who was born in Cincinnati in 1942 and died in 2020.
Jim broke with Houston in 1963 and became a regular in 1965 when the Astrodome opened.
Over the next 10 years, he hit 223 HR in arguably the ultimate pitcher's park in baseball. His best season was 1967: 37 HR & 107 RBI.
Later, he played a couple of years in Los Angeles and made it to the 1974 World Series. He hit 32 HR & 108 RBI for NL Champion LA Dodgers.
Wynn retired with 291 HR & 964 RBI.
