    As I remember it, Simmons could not play in the World Series because he was drafted.

    RIP, Curt. I only remember you at the end of your career when you were trying to come back.

    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    I recall him as a St.Louis Cardinal.

    I always thought of him as a Cardinal....

    I didn't know until now that he was a Phillies 1950 Wizz Kid....
    In 1967(?) he went to the Angels

    At the time I thought it was cool because he was on the 1964 Cardinals World Series winning team.....Anything to help that miserable Angels team! I don't remember seeing him pitch for the Angels...
    Hank Aaron and Stan Musial both said that he was the toughest pitcher they ever faced....... That says quite a lot.....
    R.I.P.

    For Goldenage....what ballpark was this photo taken in?.....
