Great fielder, not much with bat. Speedy, could steal.sharpy wrote:On October 7th ...at 83 yrs old ..don't remember a lot of Landis - tho my grandfather liked him

Best Sox CF that I remember. And he was a fine hitter for awhile. But that was relative on a poor hitting team. Landis was the #3 hitter much of the time on the World Series club. Before Klu joined them, I remember the lineup as Aparicio, Fox, Landis, Lollar, Al Smith, Torgeson, Phillips or Goodman, Rivera or McAnany
Here is one similar but Romano caught and Lollar moved to 1B. Landis had surely one of the best games of his career in this one.

As i said i liked him, but he was best in field and on bases(tho he didn't get there that often.frank bonifacic wrote:I really liked him, but he rarely hit above 260=-if thatNomads44 wrote:frank bonifacic wrote:Great fielder, not much with bat.
