"Spahn will never get into the Hall of Fame. He won't quit pitching"...Stan Musial.

In late 1964, Spahn was sold by the Braves, after 25 years of service, to the New York Mets. In mid-season 1965, the Mets released him on waivers and the Giants immediately signed him. He was released at the conclusion of the 1965 season. He was 44 years old.

Arguably, he was the greatest left-hander in the history of the game.
