Wednesday, October 1st , 1975
Darrell Conley is still a bit shy, but then, who could blame the newest National Baseball League Rookie of the Month honoree? He hasn't been around the league long enough to fully know the ropes yet, despite the fact that he's putting up veteran-like numbers.

Conley is currently batting .276 with 4 home runs and 33 RBIs.
