Time to
add "Boomer", George Scott to my long-running "Classic Baseball" custom
WTHBALLS set, celebrating the great game that has kept me entertained my
entire life:
He put together an excellent career playing for the Red
Sox, Brewers, Royals and Yankees between 1966 and 1979, slamming 271
home runs with 1051 RBI's, 1992 hits and a .268 batting average.
Defensively all he managed to do was take home eight Gold Gloves
for his work at first base, and though he was only named to three
all-star games, he garnered MVP attention in seven seasons, or half his
career!
Not too shabby to say the least...
