Great picture of what was then the leading Red Sox farm team, which they purchased long before to get Pee Wee Reese, but I guess Joe Cronin wanted to continue at shortstop, so Reese went elsewhere.

A minor point-Agganis played at Boston University, not at Boston College.

Bill James claimed that Yawkey bought in on the team to get Reese, but had two partners who decided Reese should go to the highest bidder. Yawkey refused to bid on a player he thought he had already bought.

Yup, that's 19 yr. old Roberto Clemente (seated, front row-left side) during his time as a member of the Brooklyn Dodgers organization, who had signed him for a salary of $5K (and a $10K bonus). That required the Dodgers to keep Roberto on the big league roster or risk losing him to the off-season draft, which they did, to the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1955.

The photographs of the 1962 and 1964 Red Sox show equipment manager Don Fitzpatrick, who molested a number of black boys over a 20-year period. Many feel that the team and the management knew about his behavior and never acted on it.

Money eventually changed hands, but some lives were ruined. Those covering for him were never charged. He died years ago.

Sounds like Jerry Sandusky and his enablers, doesn't it?

There's usually nothing particularly exciting to report about a Class C team in the Pioneer League, unless that team has a 17-year-old rookie named Frank Robinson (2nd row, 3rd from left) who managed to hit 17 HR's with a .348 BA. A sign of things to come...
