Carl saw limited service last season, but his powerful bat makes him an important member in the Chisox organization. A long-ball hitter and R.B.I. man in the Minors, Carl led the Pony League in his 1st year with 111 R.B.I.'s. At Bloomingdale in '47, he was high with 34 Homers and at Nashville in '49, he hit 45 H.R.'s, driving in 153 Runs. Early in '55 he went to Minneapolis.
"Rocky" was bought from Montreal last season after winning the International League's Most Valuable Player Award. He was 2nd in Homers and tops in Runs Batted In. In the Little World Series, he hit .647. "Rocky" previously had Major League trials with the Cards, Pirates, White Sox and Dodgers. At Lynchburg in '47 he led the Piedmont League in Hitting with .371.
A superstar in his era, Wade has seen the appreciation of his greatness only grow with the modern emphasis on plate discipline and on-base skills. The five-time AL batting champion produced more walks than strikeouts in 17 of his 18 seasons.
