Orioles contracts are very seldom offered $95 John Kralick- pitched in the Major Leagues from 1959 to 1967. He participated in 235 games in the course of an eight-year career that included stints with the Washington Senators/Minnesota Twins and Cleveland Indians. During that time, he earned 67 wins and 65 losses, accumulating a record of 668 strikeouts, with an ERA of 3.56. On August 20, 1961, he participated in the most recent of the six major league games in which two pitchers hit a home run for the same team. The pitchers in question were Kralick and Al Schroll. Then, on August 26, 1962, he no-hit the Kansas City Athletics 1-0, the first by the franchise in its Minnesota Twin history (the team had moved from Washington, D. C. after the 1960 season). He had retired 25 consecutive batters before a walk to the 26th (George Alusik) spoiled his bid for a perfect game. Kralick was traded by the Minnesota Twins to the Cleveland Indians for Jim Perry. Kralick was an All-Star in 1964. He gave up Ken Hamlin's 11th and last major league home run at D.C. Stadium, on June 19, 1966. He played the final game of his major league career on April 23, 1967.

After retiring, Schoendienst in 1965 began the longest managerial tenure in Cardinals history, skippering the team from 1965 through 1976. He is a member of the Baseball HOF. We offer his 1959 Milwaukee Braves contract signed by Red, HOF'er - Warren Giles, and GM - Birdie Tebbetts. Great value!!! $595 Jim Umbricht-(D. 1964 at 33) was an effective righthanded relief pitcher who appeared in 88 games for the Pittsburgh Pirates (1959-61) and Houston Colt .45s (1962-63) but became known throughout baseball and the Houston area for his battle against cancer. Umbricht underwent surgery to remove a tumor from his leg in March 1963 but was able to return to the Colt .45s to post a 4-3 won/loss record and a solid 2.61 earned run average in 35 games that season. He would play his final game, September 29, 1963, the final day of the regular season, the same game Colt .45's outfielder John Paciorek would have a career day, going 3-for-3 with 3 RBIs, 2 walks and 4 runs scored as Houston beat the New York Mets, 13-4. This game would mark Paciorek's only major league appearance. Umbricht succumbed to lymphoma on the eve of the 1964 campaign in Houston at the age of 33. His uniform number (32) was immediately retired by the club (known since 1965 as the Houston Astros) and the Astros' MVP award was named in his honor. He began his professional baseball career as an infielder before converting to pitcher. Over his MLB career, Umbricht won 9 games and lost 5 with an ERA of 3.06. We offer his very last Major contract with the Houston Colt 45's signed by both Umbricht and Paul Richards. Umbricht is an incredibly tough autograph $1950 |
