Arrow Willie Lee "Stretch" McCovey

He played in the major leagues from 1959 to 1980.

Man, this is baseball. You gotta stop thinking. Just have fun.

I've been going to games since August 8, 1973....and on August 22, 2004, finally, a foul ball came my way. I had to reach for it, and it deflected off the tip of my right index finger. Shoot, if I was only 4 inches taller!

Have you read The Baseball Same Game?

Probably had one of the greatest debut games in the history of MLB. Four for four with two triples and two singles.
