As famed sportswriter Dan Daniel once said, "Bill Dickey isn't just a catcher, he's a ball club." A key performer
for the Yankees on eight American League pennant-winners and seven World Series champions, the expert handler of
pitchers with the deadly accurate throwing-arm was also a clutch hitter, batting over .300 in 10 of his first
11 full seasons. Known for his durability, he set an American League record by catching 100 or more games
13 years in a row. He finished his 17-year career with a .313 batting average
