Talkin' baseball, Kluszewski and Campanella

"You must have drawn breath at the same time as Roy Campanella to be served in this establishment."



Winner of three MVPs, five pennants, and a World Series ring.  Owner of a career .500 slugging percentage while playing catcher full time.  And he didn't get a chance at the majors until he was 26, joining the Dodgers two years after Jackie Robinson integrated baseball.  His career ended when he was paralyzed in a car accident.
