We almost reached the end of the Lowell Palmer collection. I think there is one more. This picture of him with the Cardinals is one he sent me to use. It is interesting when you see who has coached for your team. Did you know Duke Snider and Sparky Anderson were Padres coaches. How is your name recognition today?

A Houston Astros power pitcher, a similar story from a guy who dished out
shutouts at the same rate as Nolan Ryan, and the image from the 1951 World
Series...

a few thoughts here...
i don't think i've seen palmer's eyes before!
wally moon never gave up the unibrow game.
the dodgers have also had some interesting coaches through the years - jack clark being perhaps the most unlikely.
Well, of course I know who Wally Moon and Lowell Palmer are, but that's about it.
Dave Wallace is the future Dodgers and Mets pitching coach, correct?
If so, I know him along with Moon and Palmer. I see you've made up another name in Sap Randall. :)
I recognize Moon and Palmer... and had no idea that Anderson and Snider were Padres coaches. Wait. Maybe I knew about Snider. But definitely not Sparky.
