check out 1948 led league in every offensive category but homers missed by one. he also missed one year to the military which would have probably added between 180-230 hits to his career total. quiet unassuming guy who just happened to be one of games greatest hitters. actually started as a pitcher in minors but early injury caused him to change positions.
