Joe Cunningham

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Joseph Robert Cunningham Jr (born August 27, 1931 in Paterson, New Jersey) is a former Major League Baseball first baseman and left-handed batter who played for the St. Louis Cardinals (1954-1961), Chicago White Sox (1962-1964), and Washington Senators (1964-1966).

The best season for Cunningham was in 1959, when he batted .345 to finish second to Hank Aaron for the National League batting title. He finished his career with a .291 batting average over 1,141 games spread over a 12-year career.

Cunningham was traded from the Cardinals to the White Sox after the 1961 season in exchange for long-time star Minnie Minoso. Although his first season as the Chisox' first baseman was successful, his career would never quite recover from a broken collarbone that he suffered in a collision on June 3, 1963.

His son, also named Joe, works as a batting instructor in the Cardinals' farm system.
