Description
In todays game you have to have a good bullpen to win, and good friends to enjoy that win with. Here is a great quote by Bob Lemon, "I've come to the conclusion that the two most important things in life are good friends and a good bullpen." This vintage look baseball field landscape scene was photographed in Drum Point Sports Complex, located in Brick, New Jersey.
About Bob Lemon:
Robert Granville Lemon was an American right-handed pitcher and manager in Major League Baseball. Lemon was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1976. Lemon was raised in California where he played high school baseball and was the state player of the year in 1938. At the age of 17, Lemon began his professional baseball career in the Cleveland Indians organization, with whom he played for his entire professional career. Lemon was called up to Cleveland's major league team as a utility player in 1941. He then joined the United States Navy during World War II and returned to the Indians in 1946. That season was the first Lemon would play at the pitcher position. The Indians played in the 1948 World Series and were helped by Lemon's two pitching wins as they won the club's first championship since 1920. In the early 1950s, Cleveland had a starting pitching rotation which included Lemon, Bob Feller, Mike Garcia and Early Wynn. (SOURCE: Wikipedia)
