Although he was born and raised in Chicago, Groth was signed by Detroit. He finally made it back to his home when Baltimore traded him to the White Sox. A steady hitter, Groth also is a fleet center fielder. His .993 fielding average led the league in 1951. He earned a major league try-out by leading International League in runs, hits, doubles and triples in 1948.
The lone White Sox player to reach double figures in both homers and steals in 2022, Luis fought through injuries and illness to produce a career-low whiff rate. His 117.8-mph lineout in Kansas City on August 22 was the sixth hardest-hit ball of the year.
Fielding Tips - Baseman's Stretch. Lew Fonseca, formerly first baseman of the Chicago White Sox, knows that umpires judge close plays at his base by watching the runner's foot and listening for the sound of the ball against the baseman's mitt. By stretching out to meet the ball Fonseca, and other good first basemen, can cut six to eight feet from the ball's flight, and cause it to smack into their mitts a split-second faster than would be the case if they stood upright on the base with their arms close to the body. First basemen must be expert on making one hand catches of wide throws.
