AL Transaction July 14th
The Detroit Tigers released Ferris Fain. Then the Cleveland Indians signed Ferris Fain as a free agent. Fain, a 34 year old firstbaseman, is in his 9th season and this will be his 4th team. Last year for the White Sox he hit .295 with 5 homers and 47 RBI over 80 games. This year for the Tigers he hit .284 with 2 homers and 12 RBI over 52 games. Five times in his career he has walked over 100 times. Al Lopez, the Indians manager, is planning on him backing up Vic Wertz.
