Early in the 1948 season, the Oaks acquired catcher Eddie Fernandes, along with veteran catcher
Ernie Lombardi and pitchers Lou Tost and Jack Salveson, after they were released by the
Sacramento Solons.
Eddie, who bats left and catches right, will make a valuable contribution to the Acorns' catching
staff.
