The man swung a huge, heavy bat 44oz if I remember correctly. Very quick bat, he was a monster.

Dick Allen proved that you didn't have to be 6’5” and 250 pounds to carry a big stick.

The rather diminutive Allen—who was 5’11" and 187 pounds—used his 40-ounce bat to hit 29 home runs and 91 RBI during his rookie season with the Philadelphia Phillies.

Those numbers were good enough to earn him NL Rookie of the Year honors in 1964.

The flamboyant and sometimes controversial Allen would amass 351 home runs and earn one AL MVP during his 15-year career. He was also an accomplished R&B singer, which he moonlighted in when he wasn't playing baseball.

Didn't mean a monster in the Frank Howard sense, meant as a hitter. Thanks for the 40oz correction, a very heavy bat nonetheless.

Check this out. My Dad took my friend Bill and I to this double header when the Dodgers won the pennant in '66. I was 11 years old. Check out the pitchers:

Too bad the Series

Too bad rosters are set, you guys may need to resign Mattingly as a player this time. I'm a Yankee fan by the way.
