Siebern Walks Leader in the American League
Norm Siebern of the Baltimore Orioles leads the American League in walks this season with 89, saying he avoids bad pitches to reach base. The veteran first baseman recalls his 1962 Kansas City Athletics peak and notes his aim to win the pennant with Baltimore. He joined the Orioles at season start in a trade that sent Jim Gentile to Oakland. Siebern lauds Steve Barber as tough to face and expresses optimism over Baltimore’s pennant chances aided by pitching and timely hitting.
