I never realized he was that good, and he was still a quality middle of the lineup guy when he left for Japan at the end of his career.
He would've had Gil Hodges type just barely short of HOF consideration numbers if he'd stayed in San Francisco for those two years. Plus he had a gun from right field IIRC
