Ken Hamlin Key Figure in Athletics First Division Push
The 23 year old Kenny Hamlin, acquired from Pittsburgh, is the pivotal figure for the Athletics as they open spring training in Florida. Manager Bob Elliott says if Hamlin hits around .240 the team can rely on its power, while others shift positions to fill gaps in the infield and outfield. The A’s also praise pitchers Ned Garver, Johnny Bucks, Ray Herbert, and Leo Daley along with a strong outfield core.
