Today I received the second package from Lanny Frattare. These are the scorecards I bought from him via LannyCards.com. These are the actual scorecards Lanny Frattare wrote on to track the games he was announcing for the Pirates. They are really, really cool. Caden and I looked at each one for a while going through the plays and the players. The games I bought are:
April 26, 1978 – @ Mets – Bert Blyleven 11 inning complete game 1-0 shutout
August 16, 1980 – vs Expos – Bert Blyleven 9 inning complete game shutout
August 7, 2001 – vs Dodgers – A game I was at
May 27, 2008 – @ Reds – Jay Bruce ML Debut
August 10, 2008 – @ Phillies – Lanny’s 5000th game announced
These scorecards are really neat and very unique as there is only one for each game that was used by the Pirates radio announcer. I am real excited to have added these to my collection!
