ONLY ONE OVER .300

Burgess. a stocky lefthanded bet- ter. is the only catcher in the Na- tional League with a lifetime bat- ting average over .300 and that goes for Roy Campanella and Walker Cooper. Sntoky”s llletime mark in the majors is .303. In 1054 he batted .368. high enough to lead the league only he missed by 55 the required 400 at bats.

The rap on Burgess always has kc

been that he was a poor defen- sive catcher. Thetrecord bears that out foi- he led the league with to errors in 1954. Under the tute- lage of Tebbetts. a former catcher. he has improved.

”l uas tying. myself up behind the plate so i couldn't move off a dime hut Tebbetts showed me a i-ouple of little things that helped me." said Burgess.
