Randy Jackson Baseball

[caappy]

Ransom Joseph Jackson (born 10 February 1926) is a former American Major League Baseball (MLB) player for the Chicago Cubs (1950-1955), Dodgers (1956-1958; two seasons in Brooklyn, one in Los Angeles), Cleveland Indians (1958-1959), and ended his career back with the Cubs (1959). The Chicago Cubs drafted Jackson and on 2 May 1950, the 24-year-old made his major-league début. "Handsome Ransom" had four solid seasons at third base for the Cubs from 1951 to 1955.
Jackson followed up a slow rookie season (in which he had 111 at-bats over 34 games) with a solid second season, in which he hit .276 with 76 RBI and 16 home runs. He struggled again in his third major-league season, his average falling to .232, with 34 RBI and 9 home runs.
Jackson rebounded over the next three seasons, posting batting averages of .285 (1953), .273 (1954), and .265 (1955). His RBI (66, 67, and 70) and home run (19, 19, and 21) totals also rebounded. Nor did his defensive play lag behind: in 1955, Jackson led the National League (NL) in double plays.

Sent him 2 cards on 14 Oct and got both back signed on 26 Oct - signed them Ransom Jackson.. He also wrote a little note saying he has a book coming out in May and you can go to Handsome Ransom Jackson.com for information but I could not find the website.. I am computer illiterate ....
