Towering homeruns when he connected - but he connected seldom and struck out often. He set the SO standard as a regular of with the ChiSox in 1963, fanning 175 times. Of course, that's another record that has been eclipsed more than once.

Man I thought I was old. I'm not old, you guys are. The first player I recognized was Buford.

The pictured former Oriole catcher died of a brain tumor at the age of 35. His brother was also a major league ballplayer - who played very briefly for the Orioles, spending most of his career with another team.

**Mr. Met** · 10-26-2005, 03:38 PM

Dick Brown?

**Iron Jaw** · 10-26-2005, 10:39 PM

It is Dick Brown. His brother Larry was an infielder, mostly for the Indians during his career.

The above pictured was a fair catcher, below average hitter (except during his rookie season), who hung around the big leagues with various teams for a few years. He was an original Seattle Pilot. During a coffee break just before his official rookie year, he hit what was deemed as an important three run homerun, though he didn't display much power during his career. He spent one full season and parts of two others with the Orioles.
