over three AAA teams, the Syracuse Chiefs, Toronto Maple Leafs, and Vancouver Mounties, hitting a combined .232. The only bright spot would be that the Senators gave up trying to convert Hall into a utility infielder and he saw all his playing time in the outfield. Maybe coincidentally, Hall would hit .313 with 3 home runs and 18 RBI in 24 games with Vancouver in 1962. Major league 1963 After not spending a day in the major leagues, Hall went north with the Twins in 1963 as a reserve outfielder behind future Hall of Famer Harmon Killebrew in left field, All-Star and former Rookie of the Year Bob Allison in right, and veteran Lenny Green in center. Hall would get off to an inauspicious start, hitting only .185 through the first 48 games, but a mid-June injury to Green would give Hall the chance to showcase himself for an extended period of time and he never looked back. Starting on June 8, Hall would be the starting centerfielder and he'd sparkle, hitting .276 with 31 of his 33 home runs, 72 of his 80 RBI, and 72 of his 88 runs over the Twins' final 116 games. Hall's home run total would set a career high, rank fourth in the AL in 1963 (and stood for more than 50 years as the AL record for home runs by a first-year player with not even a game of prior major league experience until broken by Jose Abreu in 2014), topping Ted Williams' 31 homers in 1939. He is one of only two players in the modern era of major league baseball history, along with Dodgers outfielder Joc Pederson (2015), to have two streaks of home runs in four consecutive games or more in their rookie season. At the end of the season, he would finish third in the Rookie of the Year voting behind a pair of Chicago White Sox, third baseman Pete Ward and starting pitcher Gary Peters. Hall's breakout rookie season was more than enough for him to supplant Green as the Twins' center fielder going forward and Green would be traded early in the 1964 season to the Los Angeles Angels as part of a three-team trade with the Baltimore Orioles with the Twins receiving utilityman Frank Kostro and infielder Jerry Kindall in return. 1964 Handed the center fielder job to start the 1964 season, Hall had a
