I saw him play at the Polo Grounds when the Mets played the Giants, also saw him many times at Big Shea. Nobody could play center field like him, he supposedly wore his hat loose so it would fly off when he took after a fly ball. Have you ever seen the Old Timers day at Shea when they had Willie, Mantle, DiMaggio and Duke Snyder together? I love your channel, you cover players from my era.
