The Harlem Globetrotters don’t get enough love. Meadowlark, along with some of the other players, including Wilt Chamberlain played for them. Their skill, personality, and showmanship was undeniable. I was able to get this autographed red white and blue Globetrotters/ABA basketball for a relatively inexpensive price. He’s still underrated in the hobby. But those that know ball… Know how big of a name he is and the impact he had on the game!

Robin Roberts was a 7-time all-star playing most of his career with the Phillies.

Robin Roberts was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1976.

Don Drysdale spent his entire 14 year career with the Dodgers. He won the CY Young Award in 1962 and a three-time World Series champion. Drysdale was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1984

Being a Yankees fan, I remember being a kid watching “The Kid” play for the Mets and loved watching him play. Great all around player who left us way too soon.
