BOB LENNON- 60 HOMERS CLUB MEMBER.
Bob Lennon
Robert Albert Lennon
Nickname: Archie
Born: Sept. 15, 1928 in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Died: June 14, 2005 in Dix Hills, N.Y.
Debit: 1954 | Pos: OF
Notable Achievements
Won Triple crown in the Southern Association in 1954
Set Southern Association record for homeruns in a season, 1954 (64)
In 1954, he hit two home runs in a game nine times, three in a game twice and four in a doubleheader
[edit] Highlights
Before 1945 Season: Signed by the Brooklyn Dodgers as an amateur free agent.
1947: On 20 November he was drafted by the Giants from the Dodgers in the 1947 minor league draft.
1954: Breakout year in Nashville (see above)
1957: On 16 April, he was traded by the Giants with Dick Littlefield to the Cubs for Ray Jablonski and Ray Katt. On 30 April, when he was playing for the Cubs, he hit his only major league home run against the Brooklyn Dodgers. The pitcher was Sal Maglie. At the end of the Pacific Coast League season, the Detroit Tigers claimed him on waivers but returned him to the Cubs.
Bob Lennon earned his first big league cup of coffee following a Triple Crown winning season in the minors in 1954. That year, he hit .354 with 64 home runs and 161 RBI for the Nashville Volunteers of the Southern Association.
Bob Lennon was an outfielder for 16 years, four in the Major Leagues (1954-57) and 16 in the minors (1945-1950;1952-1961), losing one year to the military. He served as a corporal in the U. S. Army for one year during the Korean War (1951) (BP). He missed the 1951 season, but was released before his two-year hitch was up because of back trouble. He had four cups of coffee with the New York Giants (1954-1956) and Chicago Cubs (1957). He hit .281 with 278 homerons and 1,067 runs batted in his 16 years in the minors.
Writers described him as blond and powerfully built at six feet and 200 pounds, a speedy centerfielder with a strong arm. While he was hitting all those home runs, he occasionally filled in as a relief pitcher. His Nashville manager, Hugh Poland, praised his hard work and pleasing personality.
During that season, Lennon and his wife, Florence, who had no children, adopted a baby girl with the help of the Montreal team physician's connections. They named her Kathleen. Their son Bobby was born soon afterward, and Billy and Debby came along later.
He said his wife urged him to quit in 1961: "We had our third child that year...and I wasn't going anywhere...I wanted to keep playing, but I'd just bounce around Triple-A or maybe Double-A." When he wasn't playing winter ball, he had worked in the off-seasons as an ironworker. He had his union card (Local 580 in New York) and easily found a job. But he acknowledged that the break from baseball was painful: "I missed it every spring...the first three or four or five years...From, what, [age] 16 to 33, that was my life."
Lennon later did some "bird-dog" scouting for the Yankees. During the 1990s he underwent two open-heart surgeries. In 2001 he said he still got a couple of requests for autographs every week: "Sometimes they want to send you money. Hey, I'm just glad somebody remembers me." Lennon died at age 76 on 14 June 2005, at his home in Dix Hills, NY and was buried at Calverton National Cemetery in Calverton NY. His wife, four children and six grandchildren survived him. His only surviving sibling, his sister Mary Reynolds, described him as a gentle, loving man.

Bob Crues - 60 Homers Club Member
Robert Fulton Crues was born the last day of 1918 at Celina, Texas. On the day after Christmas in 1986, just short of his 68th birthday, he died north of Dallas.
In 1948, Crues went on a rampage through the dusty and windswept ballparks of the Southwest, driving in 254 runs in just 140 games, dwarfing the major league record of 191 RBI set by Hack Wilson with the Cubs in 1930. Playing for the Amarillo Gold Sox of the class C West Texas-New Mexico League, Crues drove in almost two runs per game that summer. Two! The closest anyone ever came to his total was former teammate Joe Bauman who drove in 224 one season. Tony Lazzeri, who set the old record with 222, had to play in 197 games in 1925 to reach that mark at Salt Lake City in the Pacific Coast League. As the 21st century dawned, it seemed possible that Crues' RBI record will be one of the rare ones never to be broken.
But even when he was setting it, Bob's RBI record was being overshadowed by his home runs. Besides driving in runs at a record pace, scoring 185 runs and hitting .404 that summer, he also was hotly pursuing Joe Hauser's all-time home run record of 69 set with the Minneapolis Millers of the American Association in 1933. It was Crues' assault on that record that attracted fan and media interest and prompted fans to call him "Round Trip."
In fact, there is evidence that Crues was the first ever to hit 70 homers in a season. But one of them didn't count because an umpire may have ruled incorrectly at a game in Abilene, Texas.
On June 30, Amarillo played the Blue Sox in Abilene. Crues smashed a towering hit toward the scoreboard that bounced back on the field. Umpire Frank Secory, who three years earlier was in a World Series with the Cubs, ruled that the ball hit the fence and held Crues at third. After the game, the Abilene outfielders, scoreboard operator, and official scorer said the ball hit the scoreboard, not the fence, and should have been a home run.
In five full seasons and parts of five others, Crues hit 232 home runs and drove in 905 runs.

Frosty Kennedy was the last minor league player to hit 60 homers. He did it on the last at bat in the last game of a 144 game season. He was one of three players to hit 60 or more in 1956. Roger Maris hit 61 in 1961 in the major's, his record lasted 38 years until the steroids took over the game.
In 1956 Frosty was 1 of 9 minor league players and 1 of only 11 players to have ever hit 60 homers in Organized Baseball. The steroid use at the turn of the century has raised the total to 14 players who have hit 60 or more homers in one season.

_________________________________
The above players had to have a Per Game(played) Avg. of .250 or higher to make the list.
The MLB season is 162 games, The Mexican League AAA is a 110 game season, All other leagues are 140 game season. 5 players from MLB and 6 players from the minors and Rick Ankiel who has played in 28 MLB games and 102 MiLB games.
Player must have 60 homers with one team during season to make 60 HOMERS CLUB.
SIX PLAYERS ARE STILL PLAYING WITH ABOUT 16 GAMES LEFT TO PLAY. All Minor Leagues have ended regluar season play. I Don't think A Rod will get to 60 this year. He would have to hit one homer every other game for the next 16 games.

60 HOMERS CLUB, 2007 SEASON
Is Alex Rodriquez for real. He now has 52 Homers in 141 games with 19 left to play, his PHR has skyrocketed to 59. He will have to Avg. .421 homers per game to get to 60 homers this year, he just hit four in his last three games. Has he been drug tested yet this year?
