Harvey Haddix was known as "The Kitten." His most famous feat in the majors was certainly the game in which he pitched 12 perfect innings, only to lose in the 13th. He was a coach for the Mets in the mid-'60s for a couple of years. The card pictured here is from the 1955 Topps set. Two more Haddix pieces are shown below.
