"Dale comes up to the majors again this year determined to make the grade. Once before, in 1951, he played briefly for the Pirates and the Cardinals but was sent to the minors for more seasoning.
Starting in baseball back in 1944, Dale hit .330 at Ogden in '46 and .311 at Oneonta in '47. A long ball hitter, he belted 33 home runs at New Orleans in '52 and 35 for Hollywood in '53."
-1955 Topps No. 127
"They were thinking of making a catcher out of left-handed Dale. He's a top prospect for the Buc first base job this year."
