About the Player
From the 'This Great Game' card back: Nietzschke wrote “Love your fate, for it is your life.” The fates dealt Ralph Branca a tough one when he surrendered the home run to Bobby Thomson that lost the 1951 pennant for the Dodgers. But Mr. Branca learned to accept his fate and even embrace his role in one of baseball’s most epic moments. When he was at his best, and well rested, Branca was a tough pitcher, winning 21 games for Brooklyn in 1947, the first of three seasons when the Mt. Vernon native was an All-Star.
