"After 10 years in the uniform of the Yankees, Charlie was traded to the Tigers for the 1950 season. In 50 games for the Bengals, he hit .314 and had a double, three triples and four homers.
Charlie graduated with a BS degree from the University of Maryland, where he has established scholarships for young athletes. Coming to the Yankees after two years in the minors, he became part of baseball's most feared outfield.
Charlie was in the service for two years."
-1951 Bowman No. 177 (Bowman Gum, Inc.)
