That's not exactly tearing it up in the minor leagues. He certainly didn't look like a batting champ and a future Hall of Famer when he first came up.

Well, when you're 19 and playing AAA you are way young for your age. Had George stayed another year or two he'd have prob hit 375.
At 22 he batted .308 in the bigs, and at 23 he won the batting title at .333. (The avg age today of a AAA player is 26 and avg age of MLB debut for those who even make it is is 24)
