Bonura Hopes Fade as Giants Seek Trade Shakeup
Zeke Bonura, hitting .321, remains unwanted by the New York Giants as owner Horace Blom and manager Bill Terry seek a strong package of players to lift their 1950s pennant contenders. Bonura’s 123 games yielded 217 bases, 11 homers, and 65 RBIs while his fielding and base running drew mixed reviews. The team weighs keeping Bonura or exchanging him for a cleaner chaser to bolster the lineup amid a slide toward the NL cellar.
