Default Dick Allen

That's great Jeff. He only played one year in St Louis and some were happy when they got him and some leery due to his history. Plus Curt Flood was part of the deal to get him and that raised controversy everywhere. But he had a very solid year for them in 1970, 30 +HRS and 100 + RBIs as I recall, and Jack Buck even agreed to call him Dick instead of Richie
