Lest we forget: Jimmy Wynn

March 27, 2020

The “Toy Cannon” passed away yesterday at the age of 78.

A three-time All-Star standing just 5’9″, Wynn averaged 25 home runs a season over his 15-year career, spent mostly with the Houston Astros (nee Colt .45s). He also played for the Dodgers, Braves, Yankees, and Brewers.

He published his memoirs via McFarland in 2010 with the help of Bill McCurdy.
