"Bob had the finest won-loss percentage in the American League last year [6-1, .857], though he didn't qualify for the title. He came into 19 games in '56 as a reliever and snuffed out enemy rallies in 11 of those contests.
In his three seasons of major league ball, Bob holds winning records over five teams and is tied with the other two. He is especially effective in hurling against the White Sox, Tigers and Red Sox."
-1957 Topps No. 36
