This past spring we took a tour of the West Texas-New Mexico League, which was possibly the best hitters' league of all time. There were a couple of regular hitters who spent time in both leagues. I'll bet you have no trouble figuring out which of the following seasons were in the FIL, and which were in the WTNML:
Year --G---- AB---- R---- H---HR-- RBI-- BB-- SO- SB-BA
1951 --129-- 482--- 60-- 148-- 7--- 63---- 35-- 52-- 7- .307
1952 --134-- 548-- 120-- 186-25-- 128--- 36--- 33-- 2- .339
1953 --142-- 549-- 156-- 225- 38- 169--- 98--- 31-- 2- .410
1954 --112-- 435-- 113-- 162--35- 120--- 43--- 48-- 5- .372
The 1953 line belongs to Frosty.
Kennedy went on to have a 60-homer, 184-RBI season for Plainview, Texas of the Southwest League in 1956.
