1962 Back-O'-The-Card: Al Downing (1962 Rookie Card)

"Al signed with the Yankees as soon as he graduated from high school and in 1961 was sent to Binghamton in the Eastern League. Al had a league leading 1.90 ERA in the EL last year. When the New York pitching staff ran into trouble during the pennant race last year, Al was brought up. He's a future star."
