"Crosetti was a star of the Yanks during their golden days. His career as a player with New York extended from 1932 through 1948.
He was one of the outstanding shortstops of the game and also played second and third. As a leadoff man, Crosetti was one of the best- he had a great knack for getting on base."

"The wiry ex-shortstop has been a Yankee coach since 1947.
He played with just two teams in his 20-year career as an active player. Breaking with San Francisco in 1928, Frankie played four seasons on the West Coast before being brought up by the Yankees. He retired after the 1948 season.
Frank holds the record for most games played in the World Series by a shortstop (28). He led the American League in stolen bases in 1938 and was chosen to the League's All-Star Team in 1936."
