"This slick fielding, hard-hitting shortstop helped lead the 1952 Lookouts to the Southern Association championship. Gene played in all 154 games that year - the only Lookout to do so. He hit .279 with 163 hits and 78 runs batted in. Verble played for parts of two seasons with the Senators, mostly at shortstop. He had lifetime major league average of .202." - 1988 Chattanooga Lookouts Legends Baseball Card (1988, Lookout's Legends, Baseball Almanac Collection)
