How Hu Broke His Nose

What I find so weird about the Hu's broken nose is the lack of info about how it happened. So, this is one way to imagine it.

Having a little bit of fun with the Batman & Robin Comic Generator.

Vintage Spokesman: Pee Wee Reese

Not only do I love old Baseball memorabilia, I also love checking out vintage advertisements featuring my favorite players in Blue. Pee Wee Reese was one of many Dodgers to lend their face and goodwill to advertisers. He was a well respected leader and made an excellent spokesman.

Click either of the pics below for an enlarged view. Here he is featured by Wheaties and Gillette.

Working on the Farm

Dated June 8, 1958, Duke Snider works on his land with a borer to make some holes for some trees. What I can't figure out is the date. He was a Dodger at the time and the season was well on its way. Snider only played 106 games that year, and didn't play from June 6 to June 9, so, maybe, he was injured.
