Thoughts and pictures of my local minor league baseball team the New York Penn League Connecticut Tigers; a Detriot farm team. We'll still be looking at former Navigators/Defenders players along the way....

Clint Hartung passed away recently at age 87. His major league career spanned six seasons with the NY Giants. Clint had one notable event in his career. Other than Greg (who I gave the answer to a while ago)what was his "claim to fame?" 1st correct respondent gets to buy me a beer next time I'm at Dodd.

Clint was also known as the Hondo Hurricane.

Too many folks dying lately.
