Last name pronounced COOL, as in “There goes Joe Cool, the slick first baseman for the Senators.” Kuhel was a decent first baseman, and he had some pop in his bat, but he had to contend with 475-foot power alleys at Griffith Stadium in D.C. Probably would have been a 30-homer guy had he played elsewhere during his prime.
