Joe was the 1936 Pacific Coast League batting champion with the San Francisco Seals where he played with Joe DiMaggio before being sold to the Cubs — he was the first Cub to homer in a night game and drove in five of their nine runs in the 1938 World Series, including a homerun against the New York Yankees. Joe ended his major league career as a regular with the Phillies from 1939-1941. Returning home to Sacramento, Marty played outfield for the Sacramento Solons.
