1953 Yankee of the Past: Lew Burdette

"Lew went to the mound 45 times for the Boston Braves in 1952, winning 6 and losing 11. He worked 137 innings, giving up 138 hits, and his earned run average was a respectable 3.61.
Lew has been in organized baseball since 1947. He appeared in two games for the Yankees at the end of the 1950 season but wasn't involved in any decisions. He was sold to the Braves in August of 1951."
