This was a good piece as always, and I hate to be Nit-Pick Guy, but that “twice as many games as Roy Campanella” stat is pretty skewed by Campy only coming to the big leagues as a 26-year-old from the Negro Leagues and having his career cut short by a terrible car accident on the other end of his career. Guy was a freakin’ stud at the plate and behind the dish defensively. Should’ve been a first-ballot HoF-er easily.
