 | Monday, July 24th, 1939: Week's #1 Player Honored by AL 22-year-old Jim Tabor sent shock waves through Major League Baseball last week with an eye-popping performance that brought him the American League Player of the Week Award. A newcomer to the league, Tabor made the establishment sit up and take notice, punishing opposing pitchers with a .500 average, 12 hits in 24 at-bats, 3 home runs and 8 RBI. Where the Philadelphia (A) Athletics third baseman goes from here, only the baseball gods know for sure, but Tabor certainly made his mark last week. Tabor is currently batting .297 with 11 home runs and 50 RBIs. |
