Nova Carmina Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 I remember having that guy's baseball card and being fascinated by his cool name. Later, he signed with the Royals for a couple of years. A great baseball character. Thanks for the memories. RIP 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have alot of cards maybe 200 -300 from my youth but I'm pretty sure he is one of them. Saw him on TV more than a few times. Always threw a good game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueschica Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 He was always great to watch, especially with the A's. Didn't get to see him in person since Pittsburgh was an NL town, but I always enjoyed his games on TV. RIP, Vida. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
