Comic Book -- Home Run -- April 8, 2023

 Baseball season has started. I like the way games are going faster, but the clock is hard for some pitchers and batters.

Stan the Man Musial was greatest Cardinal player. I don't remember him playing, but I remember people saying what a nice guy and a wonderful hitter he was. Willie Mays said Musial was always a gentleman "who understood the race thing" and took care of him at the All Star Game. Brooklyn fans, who hated everyone, gave him his nickname, and appreciated the way he accepted Jackie Robinson and integration.

He served in the Navy at the end of World War II.

I have never read anything bad about him.
