Ranger Outfielder Beniquez Had His Best Year in 1977
POMPANO BEACH Fla AP Texas Ranger out fielder Juan Beniquez enjoyed his best year in 1977 yet recalls a missed All Star bid. He batted over .300 at midseason, missed a month with a hamstring pull, and finished .269 with 10 homers and 50 RBIs. He credits improved support from teammate Sandy Alomar and the confidence boost from being named regular.
