	Callison: MVP season went up in smoke in '64 (phillyBurbs.com) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Callison knows panicking, saw it first hand in 1964 as the right fielder on the most ignominious of all Phillies teams.
		Thirty-nine years ago today, Callison, his teammates and his manager, Gene Mauch, stepped off an airplane at Philadelphia International Airport, arriving from Los Angeles with 12 games left in their season and holding a 6 1/2-game lead in the National League.
		Callison contracted a virus that left him so weak that, in one memorable scene, he lined a single, asked for a warmup jacket once he reached first, and had to have Cardinals first baseman Bill White button it for him.

		Johnny Callison was the other half of the Phillies’ slugging tandem, and the fan favorite.
		Johnny Callison, who stopped by to visit with Allen, suggested that they taunt Thomas for his poor showing at the plate during the previous night’s game against the Giants.
		But to underscore Allen’s problems with the fans, Harrison also wrote, that Johnny Callison, the white fans’ hero, was only an “average player” who “can’t live up to the press he receives.” In doing so, he undermined a growing friendship between the two players.

	Rob Neyer
		The problem for Klein is that once you get past those five best seasons -- and by the way, for all five players those five seasons were consecutive -- Callison and Cravath have big edges.
		Really, the case for Callison is so compelling that I'm surprised, now, to find just how compelling it is. He contributed in two other seasons, giving him an entire decade as a worthwhile player for the Phillies.
		But Johnny Callison's the greatest right fielder in Phillies history.

	The Williams-Santo Cubs: 1970-1973 -- The Hardball Times
		Callison, while for many years an outstanding defensive outfielder, was by this point in his career no longer capable of handling center; Callison in right field was good for the Cubs, but he didnât address their primary problem.
		Callisonâs presence would prompt the Cubs to shift 33-year-old Jim Hickman, their second-half-1969 power-hitting surprise, to center field.
		The Cubs were second in the league in runs scored, and while their raw numbers should be understood in the context of an excellent hittersâ park in an unusually high-scoring season, thereâs no reason to doubt that this was a formidable offense.

		Johnny Callison didnt become one of the all time greats but from about 1963-1967 he played at close to All-Star caliber, with about 30 hr and from 90-100 RBI per year.
		He ended up playing about 15 years in the major leagues so he certainly had a quality career.
