That was the guy they traded for Ted Kluczewski. I believe Ray Boone is (or was) Aaron Boone's grandfather.
Are you sure about Gary Peters? He was the American League Roookie of the Year in 1963.
If he was on the '59 roster, then I've surely learned something today. Peters and Mike Hershberger were my favorite Sox players in the early to mid 60's.
