Mets' M'Millan Was Hit by Virus
New York Daily News, September 8, 1965
Mets veteran shortstop Roy McMillan (whose name is oddly abbreviated as "M'Millan" in the headline) has been suffering from a respiratory virus. This has given young prospect Bud Harrelson a chance to get some playing time and, according to News columnist Dick Young, he's not quite ready yet. Apparently he gives ground balls "the old dipsy-do from the side."
