Cloyd Boyer

There's a story with this one.  When I went to Cooperstown in 2005, I met Cloyd's brother, Clete, the great Yankees 3B from the early 60s Championship teams.  We talked for a long time (he told stories about Yogi and Mickey, among others), he signed a few things for me, and he gave me cards of his brothers, Ken and Cloyd, who also played in the Majors.  Clete passed away a few years later, and Ken had passed away in 1982, but Cloyd is still alive.  So I wrote him about my fond memories of Clete, and he signed the card that his brother had given to me.  Pretty cool stuff.  I love baseball.
