"When big Bob really finds the range he'll be one of the most feared sluggers in the American League, as he was in the minor leagues.
With the Yankees in 1954, Bob appeared in 56 games, hitting .260. His 26 hits were good for a total of 47 bases and included five home runs. He batted in 13 runs.
He began in 1950 with Kansas City of the American Association, his only other team in baseball. He holds a bachelor of science degree in education from the University of Nebraska."
-1955 Bowman No. 306
