It was a very good start for George Scott in the Majors, where as a rookie, he was named to the All-Star Team and was third in 1966 Rookie of the Year voting.  Playing at First Base for the Boston Red Sox, Scott had an above-average glove, and he was a decent power hitter, and “Boomer” became a fan-favorite at Fenway.

Guy Hecker was one of the best hitting Pitchers in baseball history, but as he played in the 1880s, he is one of the game's better forgotten hurlers. 

Roger Peckinpaugh was without question one of the greatest defensive players of his day, and you could go a step further and state that he was one of the best with the glove ever.

A native of Vermont, Larry Gardner broke into the Majors relatively close with the Boston Red Sox in 1908.  Playing mostly at Third Base, Gardner was mainly known for his defensive abilities, finishing in Defensive bWAR seven times in the top ten.  Gardner was Boston's Third Baseman for their three World Series Championship in the 1910s, and he would win a fourth World Series with the Cleveland Indians in 1920.
