Good show guys. Chris nailed in the beginning when he elaborated on the importance of Don Drysdale during his playing days.

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks. Appreciate the comment.

[@captaincopter2387]

The 6 straight shutout record will never be broken.

[@BaseballCollector]

I agree.

[@RatedRookie]

Good to see you guys doing a Dodgers great. Great banter, cards and victory celebration!

[@LegendsNeverDieCollection]

Everyone loves an underdog Chris! You're true to being an underdog. Because you rarely win haha! Congrats Mike!

[@Redneckclector]

Great show guys! I look forward to this each and every week. Can’t wait for Joe D!

[@wesleyhodge9457]

Well order has been restored to the galaxy again with Mike emerging as the winner 😎

[@ClementeCollector]

Great show!

[@jimfalkler9361]

[@BaseballCollector]

[@warrendinCLE]

Enjoyed the showcase guys!

[@Philniekrofan35]

As always a great show.

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks. Appreciate it.

[@billyballgamesportscards]

Mike is back in the driver's seat! Dimaggio will be awesome. Look forward to it, fellas.

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Billy. You know that I do not want Chris to get the big head. LOL

[@billyballgamesportscards]

@@BaseballCollector For sure!

[@ACollectorsDream]

Another fun show

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Orlando.

[@PreWarDreams]

The very first player run I completed was Drysdale. Very underrated. And insanely cheap in price vs the other great pitchers of his era!!!

[@BaseballCollector]

That's cool you have his run.

[@stuke1976]

Big Don, great showdown! The 1967 was one of the first cards in my first packs I ever opened. Drysdale let the league in hit-by-pitch, my guess is most were intentional. He could be nasty to hit against. Not sure if it was mentioned, he had 6 straight shoutouts in 1968 and the consecutive scoreless innings streak until Herschiser broke it.

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Scott. We forgot to mention the shutouts. Great point.

[@adamscardcloset9020]

Congrats to Chris for keeping it close 😊

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Adam. No need to patronize Chris. LOL

[@reubensnyder4656]

After last weeks episode, you motivated me to go buy a Kiner rookie

[@BaseballCollector]

@@reubensnyder4656 Congrats

[@captaincopter2387]

Koufax pitched against Marichal only 4 times. They usually Drysdale do it. He pitched 6 straight shutouts the season before he retired. He was a good hitting pitcher. He won 25 games in 1962 and the Cy Young award. He was consistently selected to pitch in the All Star game. He was usually among the league leaders in strikeouts. And the hitless wonder Dodgers had trouble scoring runs for him.

[@BaseballCollector]

Great points.

[@Brad-mj3tg]

Congrats Mike - Mike we tied which means I beat Chris. Thought I had a good chance this time. My sole DiMaggio card - although a very nice one - won't be enough next week. Love the Showdown!

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Brad. I love that you play along.

[@obx1971]

Don Drysdale was great as an announcer. So sad that he passed that young.

[@BaseballCollector]

Very true statements

[@CraigsCards62]

I always enjoy seeing DD cards. Great pitcher IMO considering how anemic the Dodgers offense was late 50's early 60's

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Craig.

[@rickyhousewright5588]

I know Don from his episode of Leave it to Beaver, when Beaver & his friend called Dodger stadium and run up the phone bill talking to him

[@BaseballCollector]

I don't know that I ever saw that one.

[@rickyhousewright5588]

​@@BaseballCollectorseason 5 episode 37...Don isn't the best actor, but it's a good episode

[@crapgame58]

You guys need to do one with vada pinson,, just because he's not in the hof YET don't let that stop you

[@Brian-pf7qq]

Drysdale appeared in a rileman episode and a episode of you bet your life with Groucho Marx

[@BaseballCollector]

Interesting Brian. I did not know that.

[@SportsCardsetcetera]

Meant *Chris nailed it*

[@BaseballCollector]

I knew what you meant.

[@peterb4871]

Another close one. It’s weird seeing Chris on the left.

[@BaseballCollector]

That makes two of us Peter

[@ottoolsen7640]

Well…….that didn’t last long!

[@BaseballCollector]

No Otto...it did not.

[@ryanfitzgerald2816]

We were rooting for the Chris 2 game win streak but alas, it was not to be. DiMaggio showdown will be fantastic!

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Ryan. Chris needs all the support he can get. LOL
