"From 1949 through 1953 Vic contributed 92 wins to the Yankees' five straight pennants. He won 21 games each in 1949, 1950 and 1951.
Vic is one of the few major leaguers who has had better records in the major leagues than in the minors. His minor league records were not overly impressive, but figures can be misleading.
Vic first joined the Yankees in 1946, late in the season. He was optioned to Portland in 1947, then came back later that same year."
