"One of baseball's most traveled young men, Sherm is now with the White Sox, his fourth American League team. With St. Louis in 1949-51, he has also worn the uniform of the Indians and Yankees.
Sherm was in 98 games in 1951, hitting .252 and driving in 44 runs, with eight homers and 21 doubles. He fielded .995."

"A top-notch defensive catcher, Sherm was traded to the White Sox by the Browns during the winter.
He broke in with Baltimore in 1943, and in '45 led the International League with a .364 batting mark. The Indians gave him a trial in 1946, but he didn't make it. In '47 the Yankees called him up and traded him to the Browns in '49. 1950 was his best year at the plate with .280.
In the winter Sherm is a department store salesman."
