Player Biography
William Jennings Bryan “Billy” Herman was the model for all National League second baseman in the 1930s and early-1940s. A smart player with great bat control, he mastered the hit-and-run and the bunt. Hall of Fame manager Leo Durocher said Herman was “universally accepted as the classic number two hitter…an absolute master at hitting behind a runner.” Herman hit .304 for his career and was a 10-time All Star. His hitting and solid defense led to three Chicago Cubs pennants in the 1930s and one with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1941.
