Yes

280 career RCAA

4 years iwth 30+ RCAA

272 RCAA from 1964 to 1971, 10th best during that time

One of the great "might-have-beens". Bad knees severely curtailed his career. Eight time all-star, 3 time batting champ, and 280 RCAA makes him a lock for this.

Still have a poster of him up on in my room at my parents' house.

Before you say it, Crash, cut me some slack, I moved out 30 years ago.

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?
