"Hank is one of baseball's most dangerous long ball hitters.
He started as a pitcher in 1941 and after spending four years in military service, returned as an outfielder. His tremendous power at bat propelled him to Kansas City in 1947 where he hit .323 and the following season batted .302.
Hank's been in seven World Series and in the 1955 Fall Classic collected six hits and a .429 batting mark."
