Carl spent three years on the roster of the Athletics, from 1943-1945, with only one loss to show for it, though he made appearances in 25 games. He spent most of the 1945 season and all of 1946 in military service. He returned to the A's for 1947 and had a record of 4-6. Last season he came into his own with 14 wins and 8 losses good for a .636 percentage. A young pitcher to watch.
