This is a 3X5 index card signed by 5X All Star Norm Cash.In 1960, Cash grounded into no double plays, the first American League player to accomplish that since league records on this stat were started in 1940.He enjoyed his breakout season in1961. He led the AL with a .361 average, and had 41 home runs (sixth in the AL), 132runs batted in(fourth), 119runs scored(fourth), 124walks(second) for a .487on-base percentage(first), and 354total bases(second) for a .662slugging average(second); but his season was overshadowed by the 61 home runs ofRoger Maris, and teammateRocky Colavitofinished with more home runs and RBI. Still, his .361 average would be the highest by any major league player in the 1960s. The Tigers finished 101–61 for their best regular season record since 1934, and scored the most runs in baseball, though they finished second in the AL, eight games behind theNew York Yankees; Cash was fourth in theMVPvoting. In addition, Cash later admitted to using an illegalcorked batduring the 1961 season, demonstrating how he had drilled a hole in his bats and filled it with a mixture of sawdust, cork and glue. His 1961 statistics turned out to be career highs which he rarely approached again – in later years, he never reached 100 runs or 100 RBI, and never batted above .283. His 118-point drop to a .243 average in1962was the largest ever by a batting champion.On June 11, 1961, Cash became the first Detroit Tiger to hit a home run ball out of Tiger Stadium. Cash hit the ball over Tiger Stadium\'s right field roof four times in his career.In the1968 World Series, Cash hit .385 (10-26) with one home run. With two out in the seventh inning of Game 7, Cash singled to start a three-run rally that broke a scoreless tie and propelled the team to its first title since 1945. Deceased 1986.
