1967 Topps #530 Felipe Alou
About Felipe Alou
Two 1967 cards mark the best season Alou ever had. In 1966 he batted .327 and led the National League with 218 hits, 122 runs and 355 total bases while adding 31 home runs; Atlanta writers voted him team MVP and he made his second All-Star team, though brother Matty's .342 for Pittsburgh took the batting crown. Card #240, a third-series National League batting leaders card, puts the two brothers on one front with Atlanta teammate Rico Carty. His own card that year is #530, out of the sixth series.
Felipe Rojas Alou was born May 12, 1935, in Haina, Dominican Republic, and signed with the New York Giants in November 1955 for $200. He debuted with San Francisco on June 8, 1958, the second Dominican-born player to reach the majors after Ozzie Virgil, and played seventeen seasons (1958-1974) as an outfielder and first baseman for the Giants, Braves, Athletics, Yankees, Expos and Brewers. He batted .286 with 2,101 hits, 206 home runs and 852 RBI, made three All-Star teams (1962, 1966, 1968) and led the National League in hits twice and in runs once. He, Matty and Jesus Alou are the only three brothers to play the same major-league outfield, and his son Moises Alou followed him to the majors. Alou later became the first Dominican-born manager in big-league history, guiding the Montreal Expos from 1992 to 2001 and the San Francisco Giants from 2003 to 2006, finishing 1,033-1,021. He is in the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame (2015) and the Caribbean Baseball Hall of Fame (2016), not Cooperstown.
