2700 hits and 300 HRs is definitely Hall of Very Good.

One of the the greatest baseball players ever from New Orleans.
Legend at Jesuit, a school full of legends.
He should be in the baseball Hall of Fame. He's one of like 3 players ever to hit a homer in his teens and in his 40's and he's the only player in baseball history with 500+ hits for 4 different teams.
He would have hit a LOT more homers had he not played his first 7 seasons in Houston.
RIP, Rusty

He was a very underrated player who did a lot of charity work. I didn’t realize he was fairly close to 3000 hits. RIP.

My father was talking about watching him play at Kirsch Rooney. My dad was a few years older and played at Warren Easton. There was a player for Jesuit that some scouts were coming to look at and Rusty hit home run that my father described as a monster as well. May have been the same game.
