"Puddin' Head" was the N.L.'s top 3rd Baseman in '53, leading in Fielding Averages and Putouts. Starting with Terre Haute in '47, he hit .307, topping the League in Doubles.

Benny Kauff, outfielder of the Indianapolis Federals, was born January 5, 1890, at Middleport, Ohio. He joined the Parkersburg, W. Va., Club in 1910, and was picked up by the New York Americans a few months later and turned over to the Hartford, Conn., Club. The following year he was recalled by New York, but released to Hartford without a trial. He remained at Hartford until the spring of 1914, when he joined the Indianapolis Federal League Club, where he was an instantaneous sensation. He is a left-handed batter and thrower.
In 1950 at Baltimore, Bob set an International League record by playing 60 games and handling 329 chances without an error. Playing with Allentown in 1946, his first year of pro ball, he hit .347 and .315 at Rochester in '47. The Cards called him up at the end of the 1948 season, but he only got to the plate once and was sent down. In '51 he made good with the Browns.
