Last season Ellis was the top A.L. relief pitcher chalking up the best Earned Run Average of his entire career! A Major Leaguer since he broke in with the Browns in '45, "Kinny" came to the Red Sox in the winter of '47. In '49 he had 23 wins, 6 of them Shutouts and led the A.L. in Won and Lost Averages with .793.
"Jet-Propelled Sam" is considered the fastest man in the Big Leagues. In 1950, his rookie year in the majors, he led both leagues in stolen bases with 35 and repeated this performance in 1951. After batting .322 and 326 in 2 seasons with Monteal and stealing 89 bases in 1949, Sam got his chance with the Braves and made good. His first year up, he hit .273. He used to catch, but switched because it slowed him down.
Alfonso smoked a 98-mph fastball up the middle on the first pitch he saw in the Majors. That kind of bat whip was attractive to the Padres, who signed him after a 2022 campaign in which he hit .283 with RISP.
