1961 Topps baseball card of a former member of numerous New York Yankee championship teams, first baseman Bill “Moose” Skowron, who passed away recently. He was an unsung member of some very talented Yankee teams of the era, but was a great player in his own right, as he was an eight-time All Star. He helped the Bronx Bombers win 4 World Series titles in his 9 years with the team, and after being traded to the Dodgers following the 1962 season, he turned around and was a major factor, hitting a home run and batting .385, as the Dodgers swept the Yanks in the 1963 Series. Skowron worked as a public relations representative for the Chicago White Sox from 1999 until his recent death.
