This says it all about prejudice. Give this man a cheroot!

Dale Mitchell was the last batter in Larsen's '56 gem.

Yes, of course. My obvious mistake.

Mickey Owen no doubt felt bad, but he really had nothing to be ashamed of. Tommy Henrich missed that spitball from Hugh Casey by 2 feet; it was both unhittable and uncatchable. (Officially, the pitch was a "curve.")

Mickey Owen died in 2005 at age 89.
High Casey killed himself with a shotgun in 1951 at age 37.
Tommy Henrich is still alive at 96.

I'll take an egg white with fat free cheddar and canadian bacon omelet alongside 2 pieces of lite bread covered with homemade apple butter. 5 points. 6 if I have my coffee with half-n-half with it.
