1951 was a terrific year for Gus. He led the American League in Home Runs and Runs Batted In and in Assists for outfielders. Gus also tied the major league record for the most home runs in 3 straight games with 6 circuit clouts and hit 7 in 4 straight games to tie the American League mark. A radio mechanic in the Navy during the War, Gus broke in with the White Sox in 1949 and was traded to the A's in 1951.
This young man defied the sophomore jinx in 1965. In one game last season, Bert played all 9 positions! Bert's biggest thrill was cracking the first pitch thrown at him in the majors for a home run. Later on during that same game, Bert hit another homer. In the minors, he pitched in a game as a righty and a lefty!
Hector was a busy guy around the A's infield last year. He played 55 games at third and 96 at second base. Pitchers know that Hec is one of the toughest men to fool at the plate and registering a strikeout is major victory.
