Mizuno Baseball Gloves

Mizuno baseball gloves are a brand of baseball gloves, gaining in popularity. Mizuno baseball gloves haven’t been around as long as other types of baseball gloves, but they make up for others in terms of quality. Mizuno baseball gloves weren’t around in 1952, when fans were treated to a very entertaining post season. The Yankee pitching still featured Allie Reynolds and Vic Raschi. Al Lopez’s Cleveland Indians again were powerful on the mound, with three 20-game winners, Early Wynn, Bob Lemon, and Mike Garcia. Bob Feller, his once-mighty fast ball beginning to fade, disappointed with a 9-13 record.

Offensively in 1952, the Indians were a match for the Yankees, with Larry Doby leading the league with 32 home runs, Luke Easter right behind him with 31, and Al Rosen with 28. Rosen was the league’s runs-batted-in leader with 105, one more than Doby. It was the lowest total for an American League RBI leader since 1918. The Indians got away quickly when the season opened, while the Yankees progressed more deliberately. Lopez’s team held on to first place until June 9, when they relinquished it to the Yankees, who maintained occupancy for the rest of the season, except for a day in June and another in August.

Both clubs played torrid ball in September—they had identical 19-5 records—and the Indians pulled to within half a game of the lead on September 12. But at the end the Yankees had their pennant by a two-game margin. With a war blazing in Korea and Mizuno baseball gloves just a twinkle in someone’s eyes, a number of big leaguers were called to military service, most prominent among them Boston’s Ted Williams. As a member of the Marine Corps, Ted was subjected to recall, and recalled he was. After having put in three years during World War II, Williams was understandably unhappy at having a second large dent put into his career when he was shipped to Korea.

The league’s most outstanding pitcher in 1952, and ultimately its most valuable player, was Bobby Shantz. With a curve ball that broke almost as wide as he was tall, Shantz was dynamite all season, posting a 24-8 record and completing 27 of his 33 starts. Bobby’s mound partner, right-hander Harry Byrd, broke in at 15-15 and was voted the American League’s Rookie of the Year. Giving the fourth-place A’s further honors was first baseman Ferris Fain, whose .327 batting average gave him his second batting crown in a row.
