[edit] Biography

Allie Clark (Alfred Aloysius Clark) was born on June 16, 1923 in South Amboy, New Jersey. He made his Major League debut on August 5, 1947 for the New York Yankees. In 1948, his rookie year, he hit .310 with 9 home runs and 38 RBI. Clark played for the New York Yankees, Cleveland Indians, Philadelphia Athletics and Chicago White Sox over the course of his 7 year career.

Most people believe that Allie Clark's best season was 1948, when he hit for a .310 average.

He is also the answer to the trivia question, Who was the last person to wear the number 3 for the New York Yankees, as he wore it in 1947. He moved onto the Cleveland Indians in 1948 and the Yankees retired the number for Babe Ruth that same year.
