Ernie Johnson Stats

Ernie Johnson was born on Monday, June 16, 1924, in Brattleboro, Vermont. Johnson was 25 years old when he broke into the big leagues on April 28, 1950, with the Boston Braves. 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 Ernie Johnson baseball stats page.

"But it was after his career as a player that Ernie's biggest contribution would be made. After a brief stint in the Braves' front office in the early sixties, Ernie became a part of the broadcast team. Atlanta Journal columnist Ron Hudspeth once wrote, 'with his soothing voice and over-the-back-fence delivery, Ernie Johnson is as comfortable as an old shoe.'" - Author Bob Klapisch in The Braves: An Illustrated History of America's Team (1995)
