For four years, Ambrose was one of the mainstays of the Badger baseball team. The big right fielder was known in southern circles as very good fielder with a strong accurate throwing arm and a very good bat. The tall and lanky lefty had great speed on the base paths and was known for extra base hits, but “Brose” was also a very good bunter. He had the ability to use it for a base hit or to sacrifice and move the runner up. He was a member of the dominant Badger baseball teams of the 1920’s. Hertzog went on to earn his degree in Medicine from Tulane University, becoming a pioneer in photomicrography while teaching at LSU and Tulane. He also earned national acclaim for his research in hematology and pathology.
