Young Miami slugger two-way prospect earns early praise
In Miami Florida on March 25 Jerry White, a 20 year old first baseman with a strong power bat, is emerging as a candidate to succeed Hank Greenberg as a home run star. White hit four homers this spring with the Browns after a 46 homer season in previous league play. He began the day as a second baseman with shifts to third and first, showing versatility in the Browns system. Enos Slaughter drove in the deciding run for the Cardinals in a 6-4 win over the Red Sox. The Cardinals rallied from behind as Williams drew a walk and a single in five trips. In San Francisco, parts of the Giants’ squad arrived from Honolulu with other regulars to follow as travel logistics delayed the full team arrival.
