White Sox Trade Two For Orioles In Major Swap
Chicago sends Luis Aparicio and Al Smith to Baltimore for Ron Hansen Hoyt Wilhelm Pete Ward and others. Ward, 23, hit .328 with 22 homers and 60 RBIs in Rochester last year and figures as the key to the deal. Wilhelm, nearing 40, is a top knuckleball reliever. Hansen, 24, burst to fame in 1960 with 22 homers and -level RBI totals, while Ward’s rookie-prospect status and strong defense drive the trade optimism.
