Cubs Card of the Day

Hank Sauer

A fractured hand kept Hank from playing the entire '53 season. In '52, he was voted the N.L.'s Most Valuable Player, blasting 37 Homers and leading the League with 121 RBI's. Hank started in '37 and was up with Cincy 3 times before joining the Cubs in '49. Since then he's averaged 30 Home Runs per year.

Hank was the fans' choice for the 1950 All Star game. The N.L. Mgr. didn't want to use him. Disturbed by this, Hank went 0 for 2. But in '52 Hank silenced his critics by smashing a 2 run HR beating the AL Stars 3-2!

Who is it?

Fans on Chicago's North Side had little to cheer about during the first half of the 1990s, when their team scuttled to several sub-.500 finishes and attendance waned. Then Sosa sparked a resurgence. Lending a previously unseen flair to the art of power hitting, the slugging star drilled dingers a...
