Browns Nominate Berardino as Most Undersold Player
The Browns credit second baseman Johnny Berardino with being the team’s brightest spark for the season. The 29 year old Los Angeles native, famed for his infield double play with Junior Stephens, credits a swing tweak from spring practice and recalls his prewar goals. Berardino, a former Our Gang actor and USC alum, spent three naval years after a failed Army pilot attempt and is viewed by Browns staff as promising managerial timber.
