TTM Success

I got two TTM requests back in the mail this past Thursday. I sent them both out about a week and a half ago, so I got them back pretty quick! I didn't have a card for either, so I sent each a 3x5 index card to sign.

Lee MacPhail - Baseball Executive for the New York Yankees and Baltimore Orioles, he also served as American League President from 1974 - 1984. He was elected to the baseball Hall of Fame in 1998, joining his father, Larry MacPhail and becoming the only father/son pair in the Hall of Fame.




Phil Cavarretta - Played for the Chicago Cubs for 20 years (1934-1953), and the Chicago White Sox for two years (1954-1955).  He won a batting title and the National League MVP Award in 1945 while leading the Cubs to the pennant. The career .293 hitter was a 4 time All-Star. Cavarretta also owns the distinction of being the only play on a major league roster at the same time as both Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron.
