no
he could hit home runs at a rate that compares to Reggie Jackson and Jeff Bagwell
but other than that, he didn't do much

Zernial is not a NetShriner, but was a fine player. He was nicknamed "Ozark Ike" after the cartoon character. I always enjoyed that strip. In 1951 he was traded by the White Sox in a three-way deal thatnetted them Minnie Minoso. He hit the last GSHR in Philadelphia A's history. Once held the ML record for PHHR's.

I had to reach for it, and it deflected off the tip of my right index finger. Shoot, if I was only 4 inches taller! Have you read The Baseball Same Game?
