A word about May 26






We remember May 26:

Baseball heartbreak:  On this day in 1959, Harvey Haddix of the Pittsburgh Pirates pitched 12 perfect innings against the Milwaukee Braves, only to lose the game on a two-run double by Braves’ first baseman Joe Adcock in the 13th inning.

"Mr. Cowboy":   We remember John Wayne, who was born on this day in 1907.    “The Duke” was the greatest cowboy of the movies.   He died in 1979.  

"Mr. Packer QB":    We remember Bart Starr who was born in Montgomery, Alabama, in 1934.  The great # 15 died on this day in 2019.
