I believe The picture labeled Indians greatest pitching staff is incorrect. It’s Bob Lemon, Feller, Garcia and Herb Score.
Thanks…will update. Not sure what I was thinking there…must have been half asleep!!
Bob Lemon is first pitcher on the left. I have copy of original pic that has Al Lopez squating on right side of the 4 pitchers. I could send it to you if you want.
Yeah, that’s Lemon…I’ll get it right yet!
