Pirates Card of the Day

Chris Cannizzaro

This receiver began playing in organized baseball in 1956. Chris was happy to be back in the big leagues last year when the Pirates brought him up from Columbus. Although not a high average hitter, Chris chimes in with many timely base-hits.

Chris tied an N.L. record for unassisted double plays in '65.

Back to the Front! Pirates card back du jour...

Bob Purkey
