Going to go backward though, and start with a guy who was discussed on here before. Roy Gleason. Gleason was a fleet-footed switch-hitting outfielder. Gleason had signed with the Dodgers in 1961. He started out at Reno, a class C team in 1962. He hit .234 with 22 long balls and 76 RBI’s. In 1963 he moved up to Class A Salem in the NW League. He hit .254 with 16 and 60. He was called up to the Dodgers in September and got into 8 games, mostly as a pinch-runner.
