"Big Steve has spent most of his career as a first baseman, but seems to be strictly an outfielder now- although that could change. He was in 89 games for the 1953 edition of the Detroit Tigers and hit .302, had 84 hits and drove in 46 runs.
He's been in pro ball since 1939. Steve began in the Yankee organization and came up through their chain to the parent club in 1946. This was after he left military service. He was in 47 games that year and hit .302.
His nickname is 'Bud.' "
-1954 Bowman No. 103
