"This will be Johnny's fourth season in the coaching box for the Cardinals. Before joining the Redbirds in '52, he coached Pittsburgh for three years, and before that was the pilot of Birmingham.
As a player, John saw 21 years of service and played for the Braves, Redlegs, Pirates and White Sox. His greatest season as a player was in 1943 when he caught for Indianapolis and hit .330."
