Todays Mail: Frank Lary

Frank Lary signed and returned my 1956 Topps #191 in 38 days. He has a good TTM success rate at 82%.

He also signed the 1964 Topps #197 and an index card. He decided not to answer my questions.


Lary played from 1954 to 1965, mostly with the Tigers. In 10 career games against the Angels (8 starts) he went 5 -3 with a 3.54 ERA.
Some of his accomplishments:

- 2-time AL All-Star (1960 & 1961)
- AL Gold Glove Winner (1961)
- AL Wins Leader (1956)
- 3-time AL Innings Pitched Leader (1956, 1958 & 1960)
- 3-time AL Complete Games Leader (1958, 1960 & 1961)
- 15 Win Seasons: 5 (1956 & 1958-1961)
- 20 Win Seasons: 2 (1956 & 1961)
- 200 Innings Pitched Seasons: 7 (1955-1961)
