Another player called up


William "Billie" Werber passed away last week (January 22, 2009). He mostly played the infield from 1930 to 1942 on a number of teams. He played with Babe Ruth and was a member of the 1940 Cincinnati Reds' World Series team. He was 100 years old.


This is his 1935 Diamond Stars card (#61). I lifted the photo from an ebay auction.
