began playing base ball for the Sing Sing
Songbirds in the old New York-Pen League. Part
of the original “Murderers Row”, he has played
over the years for such other teams as the San
Quentin Squealers, the Folsom Flimflammers, the
Leavenworth Larceny and the Alcatraz Birdmen.
His base stealing abilities and frequent fence
scaling have become legendary. Asked why he
still plays base ball, he simply says “I guess
I’m just comfortable in pinstripes”. |
