Pie Traynor was the first third baseman inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame by the BWAA, an honor he earned by compiling a sterling .320 batting average over his 17 seasons of service for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Although Traynor only cracked the 10-home run mark once, he compiled seven seasons of more than 100 RBI, and was a master of the sacrifice hit. A two-time All-Star, Traynor was named the best third baseman of all-time during baseball’s centennial celebrations in 1969. Offered here is a priceless collection from Pie Traynor’s personal scrapbook. The scrapbook chronicles his Hall of Fame playing career. This leather-bound book has numerous pages of newspaper clippings, newspaper photos, drawings and other. The book is in fair condition, showing age and edge wear. A great collection from a legendary player!
