Here is a secret for you, Bob

[Edgy MD]

Branch Rickey scouts Don Drysdale, 1954.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I like the handwritten notation. "Father is bird dog for them."

[Edgy MD]

I'm trying to figure out who "Bob" is. Branch should have been the GM at this point, answerable only to the owner, and that was John Galbreath.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Good breeding. Shiny coat. Belled ears.

[Frayed Knot]

"Intelligent face and manner shows good breeding"

Ah yes, 'the good face' analysis. Also like the "this boy" projections.
Disappointed, though, that there was no comments on Drysdale's HS teammate, OF Bob Redford.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I think you've just identified "Bob"!
