Al Brazle Stats

Al Brazle was born on Sunday, October 19, 1913, in Loyal, Oklahoma. Brazle was 29 years old when he broke into the big leagues on July 25, 1943, with the St. Louis Cardinals. His biographical data, year-by-year hitting stats, fielding stats, pitching stats (where applicable), career totals, uniform numbers, salary data and miscellaneous items-of-interest are presented by Baseball Almanac on this comprehensive Al Brazle baseball stats page.

"Old Alfie was a terrific relief pitcher because he was a lefthander with good control and a great natural sinker that dipped better the more he worked and the more tired he became. He didn't have much of a curve, but somehow his knee action when he sidearmed lefthanded hitters seemd to drive some pretty good ones crazy." - Hall of Famer Stan Musial in The Man's Own Story (Stan Musial, 1964)
