He actually was a pitcher before he signed w/ the Giants. Irv Jeffries told him to be a first baseman/right fielder. Problem was the OF was littered w/ Alou brothers + Willie Mays, and 1B was to become McCovey’s position. Not to mention Cepeda was right behind him at Tacoma.

Says he was a pinch-hitter, not a pitcher.

Desn’t seem to be in Baseball Reference. Maybe she means minor leaguer?
