The team leader in HR's that season hit 12 and drysdale hit only 1 fewer HR than the starting 1st baseman, catcher, 2 less than the right fielder, and 3 more than the 3rd baseman. The Dodgers won the World series that year.


In his other 14 seasons he hit over .200 only once (1958) when he hit .227 with 7 HR's. He was a lifetime .186 hitter.
