Meusel’s eleven year career began on April 14, 1920 with the New York Yankees with whom he remained for all but his last season with the Cincinnati Reds. Nicknamed “Long Bob†for his 6 foot 3 inch frame, Meusel hit for a .309 career batting average while slugging 368 doubles, 94 triples, 156 home runs, and driving in 1,067 runs. Meusel appeared in Sam Wood's 1942 film, Pride of the Yankees, playing a cameo of himself.
