A week or two back, Jeff asked if I would be willing to write an article about Jim Lefebrve, the 1965 Rookie of the year 2nd baseman. I jumped on the idea right away, as “Frenchy” was one of my favorite players when he was with the Dodgers. I thought to myself that this should fairly easy, as there was sure to be much written about Lefebvre. Surprisingly, however, despite the relative recency of playing for the Dodgers, I was unable to find very much about his background. Despite that, there is enough to take the time to revisit him and his time with the Dodgers.
