About Jack Merson's game log

Jack Merson's complete game log (1951 to 1953) fits on one page. Batting games on this page start on September 14, 1951 to April 24, 1953. In these games Merson played for the Pittsburgh Pirates and Boston Red Sox. September 15, 1951 stands out: 4 for 5 with 1 double and 6 RBI against the Brooklyn Dodgers. The AVG column is a running average, so it shows Merson's career figure fell from .333 to .257 across these games. Merson hit safely in every game from May 16, 1952 through May 25, 1952, the longest such stretch here. The Opp column turns up the BSN, Chicago Cubs, and Cincinnati Reds more than any other clubs. The last batting game in Merson's log is April 24, 1953 against the Philadelphia Athletics, a 0-for-4 day. September 14, 1951 opens the log: 1 for 3 against the Brooklyn Dodgers. Every row of Merson's log is drawn from a Retrosheet box score.
