Player Biography
Bobby Wallace began his career as a pitcher before moving to shortstop, where he starred for the St. Louis Browns for 15 seasons. A steady hitter, Wallace was best known for his defense, leading the American League in fielding percentage three times and setting a record for most chances in one game (17). Credited with developing the “scoop and throw” method for getting throws to first base faster, he followed his playing career with stints as manager, coach, umpire, and scout. “I loved every minute of it,” Wallace said of his 60-year baseball career.
