The Story of Lyman Bostock

Say hey.. I just came to this site for the first time. I was drawn by the posts about Lyman Bostock. I happen to have a baseball that has the whole 1977 Minnesota Twins team autographs. It includes Lyman Bostock's as well as Rod Carew, Tony Oliva, Gene Mauch, Bert Blylevin(Sp?), Danny Ford, Roy Smalley, Tom Johnson, etc... The baseball is in mint condition and has only been touched on the laces. I had it appraised at a sports shop in St. Cloud Mn. They told me it was worth 175.00. I'm at the point that I'm ready to sell it to the highest bidder. I was personally given this ball by Tom Johnson a former Twins pitcher in 1977. Anyone interested can e-mail me at driftwood28@sbcglobal.net Lyman Bostock would have been a Hall of Famer if it wasn't for the creep that shot him. Too bad we lack justice in this country. Peace,Tomcat
