Magazine's All-Time All Stars in which is recalled the February, 1944 speech in which
Bill Dickey accepted the Player of the Year Award, becoming the first catcher to
achieve that award". From the Baseball HOF, in part: "A key performer for the 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 clutch hitter, batting over .300 in
10 of his first 11 full seasons." His lifetime batting average (New York Yankees, 1928-1946)
was .313. Bill Dickey (1907-1993) starred as himself in two baseball movies: Pride of the
Yankees (1942) with Gary Cooper and The Stratton Story (1949) with Jimmy Stewart. Frame
