Baseball Birthdays: June eighteenth

Lou Brock was a Cardinal star and two-time champion.
His steal records were both broken by Rickey Henderson.

Andres Galarraga was a "Big Cat" at first base.
He moved from team to team with grace, a big smile on his face.

Sandy Alomar just couldn’t match his brother’s hitting.
But, unlike Roberto, he was never known for spitting.

Dave Leiper spent two stints each with the Expos and the A’s.
And in between, he hurled for both the Phillies and Padres.
