Dave Boswell was one of the major leagues most highly sought after pitchers in1963. The Twins move from Washington to Minnesota allowed the Griffith family the cash to sign this bonus baby. Boz’s stay in the minor leagues was a brief one and he made his major league debut at the age of 19. He was a key addition to the pitching staff in the Twins 1965 American League Pennant run. In 1969 he was a 20 game winner for the Twins and finished the season with 190 strike outs. An all around athlete, Boz was frequently used as a pinch runner and made several pinch hitting appearances in his career. In his seven years with the team,, Dave developed the reputation as a tough competitor and his fun loving approach kept the clubhouse loose.
