Fred McGriff
In 1992, he became the first player to lead both leagues in home runs since the dead-ball era; He won a World Series title with Atlanta in 1995
McGriff's time with the Atlanta Braves was particularly notable, as he became a cornerstone of the team's success in the 1990s. After being traded to the Braves in 1993, McGriff helped lead the team to five consecutive division titles and played a pivotal role in their 1995 World Series victory over the Cleveland Indians. His postseason performance was exceptional, batting .303 with 10 home runs and 37 RBIs in 50 career playoff games. McGriff's consistency at the plate, combined with his leadership on and off the field, made him a fan favorite and a respected figure in the game.
Throughout his career, McGriff was known for his durability and reliability as a first baseman. He played in 2,239 games at the position, ranking third all-time, and was a defensive asset with 1,447 assists and 1,775 double plays. Offensively, McGriff hit 493 career home runs, just seven shy of the coveted 500-home run club, and drove in 1,550 RBIs. His ability to hit 30 or more home runs with five different teams is a testament to his adaptability and skill, making him one of the most versatile power hitters in MLB history.
McGriff's contributions to the game were recognized with his induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame on July 23, 2023. His legacy as one of the most consistent and productive players of his generation is firmly established, and he continues to be involved in the sport as a Special Assistant to Baseball Operations for the Atlanta Braves.
