Are there any photos out there of Solly Drake (88th birthday tomorrow, Oct. 23) as a 1959 Phillie?
Solly Drake was a racial pioneer and he may have had one of the toughest times of all since he played mostly in the minor leagues from 1950 to 1961 with the exceptions of 1952-1953: Military Service and his brief time in the majors: Chicago Cubs; 1956 - Partial MLB Season and 1959 with the Dodgers and Phillies - his only full season in the majors.
