He hit for average and some doubles power, but he didn’t get many walks, so his on-base wasn’t too good for a middle infielder hitting at the top of the line-up.

As a youngster and rabid Peanuts fan, I always wondered why Schulz made repeated references to Alvin Dark (of all players) in his strips.
Anyway, RIP

Coached the 1974 Athletics, the worst hitting team to ever win a World Series.

I remember him playing for the Chicago Cubs (I’m older than dirt).

I got his autograph on a baseball card I had of him from the 1960’s. He may have been coaching the indians, I would have to look. But I met him at a church evangelistic meeting perhaps around 1990 where he was brought in a a guest speaker. I should see if I can dig up that card.
