Although Willie's average sagged a bit last season, he showed he was still one of the toughest hitters in the League with his big home run output. A speed demon on the bases, he ran away with Base Stealing honors with 40 swipes. In the '56 All Star Game, Willie unloaded a homer blast and his All Star average stands at a tremendous .500 for 3 contests. When Willie won the Batting Title in 1954, he was voted the National League's Most Valuable Player.
