Extractions: ERNIE BANKS Banks never played minor league ball, jumping directly from the Kansas City Monarchs of the Negro Leagues to the Chicago Cubs. He hit .314 in 10 games in 1953. He took over as the Cubs' starting shortstop the following year, and had his first great season in 1955, knocking in 117 runs and hitting 44 homers, a record for shortstops; five of them came with the bases loaded, at the time a major-league record. By 1957 he was one of the most feared power hitters in the league. The late umpire Tom Gorman once recalled that, "in 1957 Banks was knocked down four times by four different pitchers-Don Drysdale, Bob Purkey, Bob Friend, and Jack Sanford. And each time he was knocked down, Banks hit their next pitch out of the park." Ernie went on to hit 512 home runs and win two MVP awards in a Hall of Fame career.

Extractions: Alpha Index Index by Sport Index of Women Career Batting Record Banks was spotted by major league scouts while playing for the Kansas City Monarchs in the Negro American League in 1950. After spending two years in the Army, the Monarchs sold his contract to the Chicago Cubs for $10,000 and he joined the team at the end of the 1953 season without ever playing in the minor leagues. The 6-foot-1, 180-pound Banks set a record by playing in 424 consecutive games from the start of his career with the Cubs. After batting .275 with 19 home runs in 1954, his first full season, he hit 44 home runs in 1955, a record for shortstops. He broke that with a league-leading 47 home runs in 1958, when he also led the league with 129 RBI and a .614 slugging percentage. Banks was named the NL's most valuable player in 1958 and in 1959, when he batted .304 with 45 home runs and 143 RBI. He also excelled at shortstop, leading the league in fielding percentage three times in eight seasons, including a record .985 in 1959. He led the league in home runs for the second time with 41 in 1960. The following season, the Cubs moved Banks to left field and then to first base, where he spent the rest of his career. After initial problems making the transition, he became a good fielder at that position.

Extractions: Growing up in Dallas, Banks had to be bribed with nickels and dimes by his father to play catch. Banks, more interested in softball than baseball, was a high school star in both football and basketball, and once ran a 52-second quarter mile. At 17, he signed on to play baseball with a Negro barnstorming team for $15 a game. Cool Papa Bell later signed him for the Kansas City Monarchs. He returned to them after two years in the army, where the Cubs discovered him at the end of the 1953 season. The 22-year-old went right to the Chicago and hit his first homer on September 20, 1953 in St. Louis. He quickly replaced Roy Smalley, Sr., as the regular Cub shortstop in 1954. Starting with his first game in 1953, he played 424 consecutive games until fracturing his hand midway through the 1956 season. From 1955 to 1960, Ernie Banks hit more homers than anyone in the majors, including Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays and Hank Aaron, and he finished his career with five seasons of forty or more home runs. In 1959 he became the first player in National League history to win consecutive Most Valuable Player trophies, a year removed from setting an NL record for homers by a shortstop with forty-seven.
