"Doc Brown appeared in 103 games for the 1951 World Champions. He batted .268, drove in 51 runs and had six home runs, two triples and 15 doubles.
He joined the Yankees at the end of the 1946 season. In 1947 he set a record for most hits as a pinch hitter in a World Series with three."

1952 Back-O'-The-Card: Don Bollweg
"Hitting .313 at Rochester in 1950 and .303 at Kansas City in 1951, Don is a good prospect to stick in the majors this year. He had two brief stints with the Cardinals in '50 and '51 but didn't make the grade.
An Army veteran, Don started in organized ball in 1942 and has batted in 60 or more runs every season. In 1947 at Columbus, he drove in nine runs in one game. As a Yankee farmhand at Kansas City in '51, he clouted 20 homers."
