Re: [MLB] ALCS - Detroit vs Yankees After grazing the information about Hall of Fame Shortstops, I will have to go with Joe Cronin
Biography: Joe Cronin was the American League's All-Star shortstop seven times and its MVP in 1930 when he hit .346 with 126 RBIs. The jovial, square-jawed Irishman possessed the determination and toughness to become a wizard with the glove and a powerhouse at bat. He topped the .300 mark eight times and also enjoyed eight 100-RBI seasons. At age 27, Cronin won the 1933 pennant as a rookie manager with Washington before he was traded to the Red Sox. He later served two terms as American League president. |
