You're the Ump! A player bunts a ball foul with 2 strikes on him, what would you call it?
View AnswerCoffee Talk Name that player!
Larry was one of the first Indians to sign his contract for the 1954 season. He is an exceptional fly-chaser, and he can hit a long ball, and hit it often. Larry has never played for a minor league team in organized ball. He began with the Indians in 1947 and has been with them ever since. Only played in 29 games that year. However, hit .301 in 1948 as a full time outfielder. Once hit three homers in a game.
Attempting a comeback with the Cleveland Indians is Beau Bell. In 1936, when he played his first full season for the St. Louis Browns. Bell proved one of the outstanding freshman hitters in the league with a mark of .344. He played in every game and drove in 123 runs. He hit .340 the following season but dropped below .300 in 1938 and last year played in only 65 games and just couldn't find the batting range. The Browns traded him to the Tigers in May last year, and in January this year, he was sent to the Indians for Outfielder Bruce Campbell. A hitter of Bell's proven prowess is bound to get going again, and Ossie Vitt, who manages the Indians, has full confidence in Bell's regaining top form. Bell led the American league in hits and two baggers in 1937.
