create a caption! get some cards!

leave a comment letting me know what jerry koosman and the silver fox are saying to each other on this 1975 sspc card and i'll send you some cards from a team of your choice.
i'm pretty sure that koosman is saying that duke's hat reminds him of the wheel he saw on a new tv game show - 'wheel of fortune' - that debuted in early 1975, but let's hear what you guys think.

    Jerry: Even in your prime you wouldn't be able to hit me.

    Duke: I knew Sandy Koufax. Kid, you're no Sandy Koufax.

    Koos: "Are you feeling OK, Duke, you look a little bit nautious"
    Duke: "Sorry Koos, I'm fine, force of habit; every time I see a lefty on game day I still fake a stomach ache."

    "Boy, Jerry, these high taxes are murder. Do you know any good accountants?"

    "Well, Duke, as a matter of fact..."

    **By the way, I love Night Owl's caption!
