1934 Goudey #95 Myril Hoag
High number: this card belongs to the fourth and final 24-card press sheet (#73-96), printed as the 1934 season wound down — the reason the set's last two dozen cards are its hardest to find.
About Myril Hoag
Myril Oliver Hoag came up with the New York Yankees on April 15, 1931, after two seasons with the Sacramento Senators. A right-handed-hitting outfielder who never held an everyday job, topping out at 482 at-bats in a season, Hoag still spent parts of seven seasons in the Bronx before closing out his career with the St. Louis Browns, Chicago White Sox, and Cleveland Indians through 1945. He won three World Series rings with the Yankees (1932, 1937, 1938), batting .320 in Series play and homering for New York's first run in the deciding game of 1937. He earned his only All-Star selection in 1939 with the Browns. His signature moment came the same year Goudey issued this card: on June 6, 1934, he rapped six hits in a 15–3 rout of the Red Sox, a Yankees single-game record that stood until 1996. Card #95, from Goudey's scarce final 1934 series, is recognized as Hoag's rookie card. He retired with a .271 average, 28 home runs, and 401 RBIs.
