Willie was runner up for Batting Championship last season and led the League in Triples and Stolen Bases. He was also tops in D.P.'s for outfielders. Willie was the N.L. Most Valuable Player in 1954.
Don did some fine work on the mound for the Giants in 1954, both as a starting pitcher and as a relief man. He started 19 games and had 3 shut-outs to his credit. He was in a total of 28 games, with a 9 and 4 record. He worked 127 innings, and gave up 100 hits. He walked 55 men and struck out 44. His earned run average was 3.05. The Giants acquired Don in a trade with the Milwaukee Braves. 1953 was his rookie year in the majors, and he had a 7-6 record.
Curt is regarded by baseball experts as one of the finest and craftiest young lefties in baseball. When he's right, he's a mighty tough man to beat. While 1954 was not Curt's best year according to the won and lost column, his earned run average of 2.81 I was the third best in the league. He appeared in 34 games, winning 14 and losing 15. He pitched 253 innings and gave up 226 hits. He struck out 125. A bonus player, he began in baseball in 1947, coming to the majors at the end of that season to stay.
