"Mickey is the Yankee rookie of whom so much is expected in 1951. Everyone was talking about him during spring training in which he batted over .400. Mickey kept on clicking when the regular season got underway.
He spent most of the 1950 campaign with Joplin of the Western Association. In 137 games, Mickey hit .383 and drove in 136 runs. He got 199 hits, which included 30 doubles, 12 triples and 26 homers."
