I enjoy living in Kentucky, and Minor League Baseball. "Kentucky Baseball" will cover pro baseball in and around the state of Kentucky

Joe Landrum 1950 & 1952 Brooklyn Dodgers
I got a great note from former pitcher Joe Landrum.
I asked him about his his baseball card (I have never seen one of him!). He says that they aren't around because he was called up to the Dodgers from the minors on two occasions after the baseball card photos were all taken!
He was not able to play in 1951 so that he could graduate from Clemson before going in to the army. He was in the Service for all of 1953 & 1954.
He proudly mentions that his son Bill played for the Pirates and the Reds (among other teams).
