The next baseball star featured in my on-going 1970 "In-Game Action" sub-set is none other than Chicago Cubs great Ernie Banks:
What needs to be said?
The most beloved baseball player in the North Side of Chicago,
two-time Most Valuable Player (1958 and 1959), 500+ home runs, 2500+
hits, 11-time all-star and all-around great guy.
Oh, I may as well throw in the 1300+ runs scored, 1600+ runs batted
in, 400+ doubles and 90 triples he chipped in as well, setting him on a
straight path to the Baseball Hall of Fame with his 1977 induction, a
no-brainer in anyone's book!
"Mr. Cub", wish there were more like him!
