Good photo here of Lindy McKay and Ernie Bell at Buzzy’s Country Store reviewing Lindy’s baseball scrapbook. Lindy’s wife Shirley put the collection together several years ago and it contains an unofficial history of baseball and softball in the County.
I don’t know for certain if Shirley included this Donkey Baseball 1976 hi light of Lindy’s great ball career but I found it some time ago in the Enterprise’s archives (click on link below photo.)
