"Dale was bought by the Yankees in mid-1960. He was drafted by Washington last December. Dale holds a record with home runs in eight consecutive games."

"A powerful slugger, Dale is always a terror to the pitchers. The first sacker set a record with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1956 when he smashed homers in eight consecutive games. As a pinch hitter in '59 he hit two consecutive homers.
Dale led the Pacific Coast League in 1953 when he clouted 35 round-trippers and batted in 135 runs."
