Product InformationBuck Leonard, Early Wynn, Lefty Gomez & Sandy Koufax Autographed / Signed Cache. BIOGRAPHYSmooth-fielding, sweet-swinging first baseman Walter Buck Leonard was the backbone of the Homestead Grays' dynasty of the late 1930s and 1940s. Even-tempered, modest and loyal, the left-handed hitting Leonard was a model of consistency and one of the best pure hitters to play in the Negro leagues. He played in a record 11 East-West All-Star games, and his remarkable 17-year tenure with the Grays is the longest term of service with one team in Negro leagues history. BIOGRAPHY Early Wynn, a burly, hard-nosed competitor, treated every ballgame as if it were a war. His durability helped him lead the American League in innings three times and also helped him last 23 seasons - an American League record for pitchers. During his career with the Senators, Indians and White Sox, Wynn won an even 300 games, highlighted by five 20-win seasons, 49 shutouts and seven All-Star selections. In 1959, he won the Cy Young Award at the age of 39, posting a record of 22-10 to lead the White Sox to the pennant. BIOGRAPHY A lanky left-hander, Vernon Lefty Gomez baffled the opposition with a blazing fastball and sweeping curve, while entertaining teammates with his wit and good humor. He was a 20-game winner four times during the 1930s and comprised half of the Yankees' devastating 1-2 punch, along with right-hander Red Ruffing, helping them to seven pennants. Gomez twice won the pitching Triple Crown in 1934 and 1937. He set a World Series record by winning six games without a loss. BIOGRAPHY After Sandy Koufax finally tamed his blazing fastball, he enjoyed a five-year stretch as perhaps the most dominating pitcher in the game's history. He won 25 games three times, captured five straight ERA titles, and set a new standard with 382 strikeouts in 1965. His fastball and devastating curve enabled him to pitch no-hitters in four consecutive seasons, culminating with a perfect game in 1965. He posted a 0.95 ERA in four career World Series, leading the Dodgers to three championships. This item comes fully certified and comes with a hollywood collectibles certificate of authenticity. |
