One Game, Many Players, One GREAT Story. Thursday, December 10, 2009. Meeting Legendary Slugger Ralph Kiner. Maddy, Jami, and Jody with Hall of Famer Ralph Kiner at Bob Feller's Museum in Van Meter, Iowa . Mr. Kiner was a pleasure to meet. We had this former Pirates Slugger autograph a replica of his home jersey. Kiner led the NL in HR's from 1946-1952. As a young hitter he would study the swing of Babe Ruth frame by frame and styled his swing after the Great Bambino. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Jami posed for a picture by a statue of "Cool Papa" Bell. A view from our seats (Mark Teahen at the plate). And that kid twice his age? Jami just had fun. Proud of my Slugger!

One Game, Many Players, One GREAT Story. Wednesday, January 25, 2006. Did Bob Gibson Play there? It has been told by many good ol’ boys that Hall of Fame pitcher.

I had a chance meeting with Mr. Gibson in 2000 and asked him the fabled question, “Did you ever play in Beebeetown, Iowa? Folklore became fact that day, and my Grandfather’s tale – a legend.
