Tom Tresh died today

Don't know much about him. I remember my dad buying his baseball card for me during THAT time. You know, when everyone was collecting and suddenly there was 40 brands and dozens of special releases.

He looked like a Yankee of the era. Short hair, baggy uniform, on one knee leaning over a bat. He was Rookie of the Year in 1962, I've learned.

Not sure that card is worth anything. Anyway, one more piece of the past falls away.

Here's the card I have. His rookie card, it turns out. Nice job, dad.
