Birthdays- 11/3
Reds:
Larry Kopf- Shortstop for the 1919 world champs.
Others:
Bob Welch (55) -Baseball's last 27-game winner. His book Five O'Clock Comes Early deals with his struggle with alcoholism.
Dwight Evans (60) -Who can forget the catch he made off of Morgan in Game 6 of the '75 Series?
Ken Holtzman (66) -Pitched the only no-hitter I've personally witnessed in '71 at Riverfront. If someone asked you who baseball's all-time winningest Jewish pitcher was, you'd automatically say Koufax, but the correct answer is Holtzman.
Bob Feller -Just passed away last year.
