The clean-shaven outfielder/first baseman may be the only "catfish" who wasn't nicknamed for his whiskers. He was given the nickname by Casey Stengel when he injured himself trying to pull a hook from a catfish. Catfish played ten years in the big leagues for the Red Sox, White Sox, Indians, Pirates, Braves and of course, the Cubs. In his career he never hit ten homers and never hit .300, but he did have a little speed and was known as a good glove man in centerfield. He hit .234 in his season with the Cubs, the second-to-last season of his career ('53).
