Duke Snider's prime was downright incredible. Averaging 40 Homers to the tune of a .311 batting average. Not half bad for the third best outfielder, in New York, in the 1950's!
While the move to the larger stadium definitely hindered his performance, later on in his career, I'd attribute his decline to Knee troubles. Something that his fellow NY outfielder, Mickey Mantle also experienced.
