Fred Norman Stats

Fred Norman was born on Thursday, August 20, 1942, in San Antonio, Texas. Norman was 20 years old when he broke into the big leagues on September 21, 1962, with the Kansas City Athletics. 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 Fred Norman baseball stats page.
"It seems only yesterday to Fred Hubert Norman when he signed a $40,000 bonus contract as a pitching phenom out of Jackson High in Miami, Florida. The Kansas City A's, who signed him, considered Norman to be the fastest left-hander operating in Miami since Al Capone." - Baseball Digest (Bill Braucher, June 1975)

I PLAYED BASEBALL AGAINST FRED NORMAN IN 1961 IN MIAMI. GAMES WERE PLAYED IN BACK OF THE ORANGE BOWL STADIUM CINFIGURED FOR BASEBALL DURING THE SUMMER. I AM HAPPY TO SAY I HIT A TOWERING LINE DRIVE OFF THE SECOND TIER OF THE ORANGE BOWL FOR A HOME RUN. NORMAN HAD THE FASTEST PITCH OF ANY PLAYER IN MIAMI AT THE TIME AND WAS SIGNED RIGHT OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL. HE WENT ON TO WIN TWO WORLD SERIES RINGS WITH THE RED IN THE EARLY 1970'S SO THIS MEMORY STANDS OUT FOR ME. - RICHARD DIMARE
