"Billy enjoyed another fine World Series last year collecting eight hits in seven games. His lifetime Series average is now a handsome .333. He holds World Series records for most hits (12), highest batting average (.500) and most total bases (23) in a Fall Classic.
In 1956, Billy hit better in night games than in daylight."
