Baseball Historian Biography

'Deemed by many as 'an enigma wrapped in a riddle,' Dick Allen was one of baseball's all-time distance hitters despite the controversies that seemed to envelop his 14 major league seasons. Signed by Phillies for a $60,000 bonus, Allen played for the Cardinals, Dodgers, White Sox, and A's before returning to Philadelphia in 1975-76. His biggest home run season came in 1966, when he hit 40 for the Phillies.' Dick Allen hit 351 career homers. Baseball story by 'The Home Run Book' by Topps Card Company 1981 Issue.
