Matt Williams was a cornerstone of the San Francisco Giants for a decade (1987-96), where he played in the infield, switching between Third Base and Shortstop. 

Many of the early baseball players suffered from an addiction to alcohol, but we have to wonder if any of them had anything on Pete Browning, an Outfielder who once quipped, "I can't hit the ball until I hit the bottle."   He hit the bottle a lot, but he also hit the baseball at a high level.

Lon Warneke played his entire career in the National League, splitting his run with rivals Chicago and St. Louis.

Tommy Henrich is a part of the folklore of the New York Yankees, but with the legends that the Bronx Bombers have had, sometimes “Old Reliable” gets lost in the shuffle.

Henrich played his entire career in New York, first debuting in 1937, and helping them in the 1938 World Series win.  His breakout year was in 1941 when he had 31 Home Runs and won another World Series Championship.   Henrich was one of the many who lost time in baseball due to his participation in World War II, and he lost three years, but he came back to have the best run of his career.

Henrich would lead the American League in Triples in 1947 and 1948 and was also the league leader in Runs with 138 in 1948.  He would help the Yanks win the 1947 and 1949 World Series, and he was a huge part of those wins, batting .323 in the '47 Series and hitting the first walk-off Home Run in Game 1 of the ’49 Series.

Retiring after 1950, Henrich was a five-time All-Star and had 183 career Home Runs.
