John Henry Johnson



Born on today's date, John Henry Johnson.

I don't know.

Maybe the ladies liked it.

I do know that there appeared to be a robin nesting in the back.

We also learn that John played little league baseball.

One of the privileged few.

What a strange nugget to list on a Major Leaguer's card. Maybe it would be interesting if he was a professional in a different sport...

He did not have much of a distingushed career so not a lot to pick from as far as comments on the back of the card.

He did have 2 shutouts, 9 saves and 9 complete games and I would think in there there may have been at least one pitching gem that could have been mentioned.

Actually his ERA was kind of respectable though I can see him getting into trouble with all those walks.
