Wilmer "Vinegar Bend" Mizell
Jim "Mudcat" Grant (brother "Spitfire" a minor leaguer if I remember right)
Original " Dr. Strangeglove'....and most deserving..was Dick Stuart......Pitt......early 60s
all stick otherwise never a pro...This guy was a real character...I frequented a watering hole in CT that he did in the early 70s...he was very dapper and a real character. He once hit 66 home runs for class A in the minors but no concept of defense..lotta funny stories
