TOBA Awards Player of the Week Trophy Monday, May 12th , 1952
Not every ball that came off Karl Gallizio's bat last week was a line drive or a towering shot -- it just seemed that way to the teams that played the Sicily Mafia. For his exploits, Gallizio was named this week's Trans-Oceanic Baseball Association Player of the Week award.
The Sicily center fielder put up 11 hits in 23 at-bats and 1 home run while hitting .478 with 6 RBIs and 5 runs scored.
