Pete Ward played for the White Sox from 1963-69. He first came up with the Orioles, but was blocked at third base by Brooks Robinson. The Sox acquired him in a blockbuster trade. The Sox got Pete Ward, Hoyt Wilhelm, Ron Hansen, and Dave Nicholson in exchange for Luis Aparicio and Al Smith. Ward went on to finish second in the 1963 AL Rookie of the Year balloting behind teammate Gary Peters.
Pete has reliable signed his mail forever, so I knew he would be a safe guy to send to. He certainly didn’t disappoint. Thanks Mr. Ward!
