Christman Emerges as Browns Best Balance of Ball and Work
Mark Christman of the St Louis Browns is hailed as the American League's most improved player by Ossie Bluege and other baseball men. The Webster Groves product shifted to third base after a midseason trade, developed power with a new 34 ounce Vern Stephens bat, and hit around .390 with timely, long drives including a grand slam against Jesse Flores of the Athletics. Christman rose from the Municipal Leagues to major league reliability, tracing his rise to steady work, improved defense, and a determined pull-hitting stroke. The son of a football star, he credits his progress to position changes, a new glove, and consistent employment with the Browns.
