DON HEFFNER AUTOGRAPH SIGNED CHECK YANKEESCOMPLETE CHECK MEASURES 2 3/4 x 6 , SMALL POSTION OF PAPER LOSS UNDER "DON" IN LOWER RIGHT BOTTOMDonald Henry Heffner (February 8, 1911 - August 1, 1989) was an American second baseman, coach and manager in Major League Baseball. Heffner entered baseball in 1929. After all or parts of four seasons with the then-minor league Baltimore Orioles, Heffner joined the New York Yankees for the 1934 season. He spent four seasons with the Yanks as a part-time player before a trade to the St. Louis Browns afforded him more playing time. He appeared in more than 100 games in 1938-41 with St. Louis before reverting to a reserve role, and finished his playing career with the Philadelphia Athletics and Detroit Tigers in 1943-44. In 743 games over all or parts of 11 American League seasons (1934-44), Heffner batted .241 with six home runs and 610 hits. In 1947, he began his managing career in the Browns' farm system, and he promptly won consecutive pennants in his first two seasons. He returned to the Major Leagues as a coach with the Athletics, now based in Kansas City, in 1958-60 and the Tigers in 1961. Heffner then spent two successful seasons managing the San Diego Padres of the Pacific Coast League, winning the 1962 league championship, before becoming third-base coach of the New York Mets in 1964-6 read more
