"Bob is one of Brooklyn's great gifts to the Bronx. Casey Stengel picked him out of the Yankee rookie school in 1954, and he has been a favorite at Yankee Stadium ever since. His specialty is a good sinker ball. Bob was the ace of the Yankee bullpen last year.
He tends his father's bar during the off-season."
