El Tappe

Today would have been former #Cub El Tappe's 94th birthday. El was a backup catcher with the Cubs in the mid-50s, but he is most remembered for being a part of P.K. Wrigley’s infamous College of Coaches. In El’s turn as head coach in 1961, the Cubs were 42-54. #everyCubever pic.twitter.com/ElYMg11bk4
