Torre Proves Worth At First Base For Braves

Brooklyn born Joe Torre, 24, after initially being unwanted as a first baseman, claims the position for Milwaukee. He hits .340 with team leading home runs while splitting duties between catcher and first base as Ed Bailey rests or faces left-handed pitching. Torre, previously a catcher, rose from Sandlot to Eau Claire to Louisville before joining Milwaukee, and he expects to play every game this season. If healthy he could help the Braves challenge for the pennant amid a strong start and Dodgers’ woes.
