Former Dodgers outfielder Al “The Bull” Ferrara died on Friday, the team announced. He was 84. Ferrara was part of the Dodgers’ World Series championship teams in 1963 and 1965 and also hit 27 home runs over two-plus seasons with the San Diego Padres from 1969-71. “We are saddened to hear the news of Al Ferrara’s passing today,” Stan Kasten, the Dodgers’ president and CEO, said in a statement. “Not only was Al a memorable player for the Dodgers in the 1960s, but he tirelessly supported the Dodgers community efforts and was one of our most committed alumni supporters. We extend our sympathies to his family.” Ferrara was named the Dodgers’ MVP in 1967 when he batted .277 with 16 homers and 50 RBIs in 122 games. Following the 1968 season, Ferrara was chosen in the expansion draft by the Padres and was the prime left fielder for the franchise during their first two seasons. He batted .260 with 14 homers and 56 RBIs in 1969, and hit .277 with 13 homers and 51 RBIs in 1970. He played 138 games both seasons. The Padres traded Ferrara to the Cincinnati Reds in May 1971 and he retired after the season.
