ntnnhers he posted in between
were good enough.
The California Angels out
fielder hit 2H3 with 95 Kills and
:il home runs, tied for ninth in
the Al. For that, he became the
fourth American Leaguer to win
Rookie of the Year honors in a
unanimous vote.
Salmon's statistics would
have been even more impressive
if he hadn't missed the final 2
weeks of the season Hut an
inning after hitting a grand slam
in the Angels' 15-1 rout of Seat
tle on Sept. 15, Salmon broke
his left ring finger while fielding
a line drive.
"After mv season was over,
and 1 got hurt, then ! could real
ly get away from the game a lit
tle int and look at what my final
numbers were, then 1 said. 'Hey.
I'm going to he the one to win
it.’" he said.
