"Charlie will get his chance to play a complete season in 1957 after being a part-time operator with the Yankees for eight seasons.
A clever receiver who is expert at handling pitchers, he was traded to the Cubs during the off-season. He came to the majors after hitting .301 at Portland in 1948 and led the league's catchers in putouts and assists. Though not a slugger, Charlie is a fine clutch hitter."
