felser Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 Led the league with a .340 average in 1955. He was 20 years old. Had a great reputation as a human being, and an uncontested hall of famer as a player. 134 OPS+ for his career, 93 WAR, played 22 years. Mr. Tiger. He, Bruton, and Colavito were a wonderful outfield for a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
