Fritz Peterson pitched eleven seasons in the major leagues, nine of them with the Yankees. Winner of 133 games lifetime, his best season was 1970, when he was an American League All Star, going 20-11 with a 2.90 ERA. Author of the new book When The Yankees Were on the Fritz, he kindly answered my questions about baseball cards.
"My rookie card with Frank Fernandez on it is very
ugly! I think they painted my cap on because I wasn't supposed to make
the team that soon!"
Thanks!
Told you it was ugly!
