Late to the party, but pretty impressive for a player that, as far as I know, has his only card during his playing days in the 1934 Al Demaree set. As a shortstop and third baseman that played in 129 games for the Indians in the 1932 season and batted .297 in over 500 at bats, you would think he would have at least snuck into the 1933 Goudey set.
