Baseball Historian Biography

One of the Brooklyn Dodgers 'Boys of Summer', Carl Furillo was an outstanding fielding right-fielder with an accurate, powerful throwing arm. His batting during the Dodgers pennant drives in the late 1940s and throughout the 1950s was an important factor in their winning six pennants. Carl Furillo led the National League in batting in 1953, hitting .344. A consistent hitter with a lifetime .299 average, he hit over .290 in 11 different years and over .300 five times. Defensively, Carl Furillo was one of the all-time best, he led the league in assists in 1950-1951 and there-after base runners stopped testing his rapid throwing arm. Carl Furillo career stats: .299 BA, 1806 games, 1910 hits, 324 D's, 56 T's, 192 HR's, 1058 RBI's and fanned only 436 times in 6378 at bats. baseballhistorian.com archives - Baseball Players
