Bob went on the inactive list last year and retired to the Coaches' box. In Baseball since 1934, he came up to the Majors in 1940 with the Browns. After 2 seasons at St. Louis he was traded to Philadelphia and joined the Tigers in '44. Always a defensive standout, Bob led the American League back- stops in Fielding in 1948 with a .991 Mark.
Recorded a .326 batting average during 1950. Slugged out 25 home runs. Drove 102 runs across the plate. Besides wielding a potent bat, Larry is a top-notch fielder.
