Player Biography
As famed sportswriter Dan Daniel once wrote, “Bill Dickey isn’t just a catcher, he’s a ball club.” A key performer for the New York Yankees on eight American League pennant-winners and seven World Series champions, the expert handler of pitchers with the deadly accurate throwing arm was also a top hitter, batting better than .300 in 10 of his first 11 full seasons. Known for his durability, he set an A.L. record by catching 100 or more games 13 years in a row. Dickey finished his 17-year career with a .312 batting average.
