After eight seasons as a professional baseball player, Bobby Wallace jumped from the St. Louis Cardinals of the National League to the St. Louis Browns of the American League.  The jump happened in 1902, and Wallace could very well be the best defensive Shortstop of the first decade of the American League's existence.

Ken Williams' contract was purchased from Portland of the Pacific Coast League in June of 1917, but he was drafted into the military in early 1918, so it was not until 1919 where he played 65 Games with a .300 Batting Average.  That wasn't bad, but e a breakout season the year after was about to come.

Boog Powell was one of the power men of the great Orioles teams of the late 60s and early 70s, and when you are named Boog, how can you not be a fan favorite?
