In August of 1948, while playing for the Cleveland Indians, Eddie tied a major league record by participating in six double plays at first base in one game. In May 1950, while with the Washington Senators, he tied another major league record when he made two unassisted double plays at first base in one game.
Eddie began in organized ball in 1939."
