Apparently you'll get 2 posts today because I didn't check my calendar for birthdays before I did the last post.
Luis was born in 1934 making him 87 today.
MLB Debut - April 17th, 1956 (White Sox)

- 1963-1967 (Orioles)

I just realized that if I pick up the 1964 Topps that I will have the complete run from 1960-1974. I still need to pick up his 50's cards as well.
