Rocky was funny guy. Seems strange - unless you can remember Casey Stengel - that he was picked as a spare outfielder for the 1958 AL AS squad. Rocky only hit .263 with five HR for the Senators that year, while his teammate, Roy Sievers had a career year, with a .295 BA, 39 dingers and 108 RBI. Another Washington teammate, Jim Lemon, finished with 26 homers and 75 RBI, so you have wonder why Stengel would select a banjo hitter instead of far more worthy Senators to sit the bench. But, then there were six Yankee subs selected for the bench in that game, so - Stengelese, indeed.
