The Day Shea was Born




Here's the box score from the first ever game played at Shea Stadium. Photo above was taken at that game on April 17, 1964. Funny to see that Donn Clendenon was in the lineup for the visitors. How would you like to be hitting where he was: behind Roberto Clemente and Willie Stargell? Bet you didn't know Jack Fisher threw the first pitch in Shea history. OK, bet you didn't know I didn't know that.
