1958 Back-O'-The-Card: Darrell Johnson

"Judging by Darrell's minor batting, he's ready for the majors.
In 1950 at Marshall, he hit .329. Working his way up, he went to Denver in 1955 and has been one of their top batters for three years. In 1955 at Denver, Darrell led American Association catchers in putouts and assists.
Darrell's dad was a minor league first baseman."
