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? |

Well, of course. Probably deserves to be in the Hall as both a manager and a player.

I have always felt he was an outstanding player. Even though he was pretty much a part time player by age 28 his 3B RCAA total was not passed until Eddie Mathews in 1959. One of the rare managers who I give credit for being a dominant force in the game

He only played 7 full seasons. I'm not sure he makes it as a player alone.
Luckily, he's not being judged as a player alone. |
