This will be the first. I’ll go with something from the year I was born. 1979. 40 years ago! Have to start with a Chicago Cub. Say hello to Rodney Scott, born in Indianapolis, Indiana.

A little search reveals he had the sweet nickname of “Cool Breeze.” He was best known for his speed, and stole 63 bases in 1980, which ranked him 3rd in the National League that year. I hope he enjoyed 1974 in the great state of Iowa.
