Who's Who in the Major Leagues

Page from 1950 Issue

The 1950 Chicago White Sox page from the Who's Who in the Major Leagues highlights key players from the team during that season. Bob Kuzava, a promising young left-handed pitcher, is noted for his potential after a season impacted by injuries. Herman Reich, acquired from the Cubs, had a successful previous season hitting .280 with the Bruins and aimed to contribute positively as a first baseman. Cass Michaels, another second baseman, showed significant progress, having compiled solid hitting statistics in prior years. Luke Appling, an experienced shortstop, was recognized for his record of games played, having topped .300 multiple times and played more games than any player in history at that position. Bill Salkeld, a recent addition from the Boston Braves, was expected to bolster the pitching staff with his experience. Floyd Baker was mentioned as a strong defensive third baseman who aimed to improve his batting average.
