that season in 2005 wally joyner

482 slugging in 806 o-p-s the 1988
homerun Derby was canceled due to rain
so the next one was 1989 in which Ruben
Sierra and Eric Davis were Co champions
so let's get a start with Ruben Sierra
Ruben Sierra played for the Rangers Hays
Yankees Tigers Reds Blue Jays white sox
mariners twins almost every team who was
a four-time all-star 89 91 92 and 94 he
also won the Silver Slugger in 89 and

slugging and a 765 o-p-s and then the
other co champion was Eric Davis who
played for the Reds Dodgers Tigers
Orioles Cardinals and Giants he was a
two-time all-star World Series champion
1990 he won three gold glove x' two
silver sluggers and the Roberto Clemente
award in 1997 1997 was also an
interesting year for Eric Davis who was
diagnosed with cancer and would end up
playing that season hitting a walk-off
while going through treatment in the
1997 ALCS he was inducted into the Reds
Hall of Fame and is currently a hitting
instructor in Florida in a 17-year
career Eric Davis had 1430 hits he
finished with 282 homeruns 934 RBIs with
349 stolen bases his batting averages
to 69 I'm based at 359 slugging at 42 to
give an O PS at 841 for his career
breaking into the 90s now starting it
off with Ryan Sandberg who won the 1990
Home Run Derby Sandberg would play with
the Phillies and Cubs throughout his
career making 10 all-star teams and
winning the MVP in 1984 he was a nine
time gold Glover seven-time Silver
Slugger Award winner he led the National
League in home runs in 1990 has his
number 23 retired by the Cubs he's also
a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame
Sandberg got a manager job in 2013 with
the Philadelphia Phillies and lasts
until 2015 and 16 season to play
Sandberg had 2386 hits 403 doubles 76
triples 282 home runs to go along with
1000 61 RBIs and 344 stolen bases his
career average was 285 with a 344
on-base 4:52 slugging and a 795 o-p-s
the 1991 homerun Derby was won by Cal
Ripken jr. not someone you think of as a
home run hitter he obviously only played
for the Orioles in his career 19 time
all-star the 1983 World Series champion
who's a two-time AL MVP and 83 and 91
Rookie of the Year in the prior year at
1982 two-time gold Glover eight times
Silver Slugger he won the Clemente award
in 1992 he has the record for most
consecutive games played at 2632 his
number eight years retired by the
Orioles he's a part of their Hall of
Fame as well as the Baseball Hall of

one of the best shortstop of all time
and currently he's an author and
business investor in 21 years of playing
he played just over 3,000 games 3184
hits 600 doubles 431 home runs 1695 RBIs
hit 276 with the 340 on-base 447
slugging to him an O PS at 788 in 1992
the MLB homerun Derby winner was Mark
McGwire and we start to get really into
the homerun hitters now McGwire played
for the A's and Cardinals throughout his
career accumulating 12 all-star game
appearances as well as winning one World
Series championship in 1989 he was the
AL Rookie of the Year in 1987 a gold
Glover in 1990 he was the home run
leader five times as well as a National
League RBI later in 1999 he's made the
Cardinals Hall of Fame not the Baseball
Hall of Fame because while steroids he
admitted to using steroids in 2010 he
broke Roger Maris's home run record
originally before shattered by Barry
Bonds he made the MLB all century team
so yes he would have made the Hall of
Fame if it wasn't for admitting to using
steroids and after playing he's coached
for the Cardinals Dodgers and Padres and
16 seasons of play Mark McGwire had 1626
hits 583 home runs
1,400 RBIs yet a 263 batting average 394
on-base 588 slug me to give him a career
Oh PS at 982 Juan Gonzales was the 1993
home run derby winner he would end up
playing for the Rangers Tigers Indians
and Royals throughout his career he was
a three-time all-star two-time AL MVP
six-time Silver Slugger and he also led
the American League in home runs twice
Juan Gonzales is a member of the Rangers
Hall of Fame but similar to Mark McGwire
not a member of the Baseball Hall of
Fame Juan Gonzales his name is connected
to steroid allegations opposed I can't
say Co has accused him of using it being
the person who introduced him to him but
to Juan Gonzales his credit he's never
admitted to it and it's never been
proved most recently Juan Gonzales was a
coach for team Puerto Rico in the World
Baseball Classic in 17 years of play
Juan Gonzalez finished with just under
2,000 hits at 1936 yeah 388 doubles 434
home runs and 1400 RBIs his career
batting average was 295 with a 343
on-base 561 slugging and a 904 career
o-p-s in 1994 Ken Griffey won his first
of three home run derby championships
who would end up winning in 98 and 99 as
well Murphy of course played for the
Mariners reds and white sox he was a 13
time all-star the AL MVP in 1997 10 time
Gold Glove for seven-time Silver Slugger
he won the comeback player of the year
in 2005 four-time American League home
run leader he also led the league in
RBIs in 97 his number 24 is retired by
the Mariners and obviously he's in the
Mariners and Reds Hall of Fame he's also
a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame
making it on his first bout receiving
99.3% of the votes he also made the MLB
all century team in 22 seasons Griffin
finished with 2781 hits 524 doubles 630
home runs and 1836 RBIs along with 184
stolen bases a career average at 284
on-base at 370 slugging at 538 and o-p-s
at 907 moving on to 1995 the champion of
that homerun Derby was Frank Thomas the
big hurt Frank Thomas would play for the
White Sox eighth and Blue Jays in his
career making five all-star teams and
winning the MVP twice for the American
League 93 and 94 he was a four-time
Silver Slugger as well as an al batting
champ in 1997 his number 35 is retired
by the White Sox and he's also a member
of the Baseball Hall of Fame Frank
Thomas is one of the few players that
played during the steroid era that no
one ever had a suspicion of peds or
allegations right now Frank Thomas is an
analyst on MLB for Fox and you can
constantly see him in new genex
commercials to boost that testosterone
in nineteen years of major league
baseball Frank Thomas finished with two
468 hits 495 doubles 521 homers 1,700
RBIs he hit 301 with a 419 on base 555
slugging do you have a no PS and 974 for
his career in 1996 the greatest player
of all time won the home run derby
that's Barry Bonds he played for the
Pirates and Giants throughout his career
14 time all-star
seven-time National League MVP the most
ever he want a cold gloves along with 12
silver sluggers throughout his career he
was a three-time nationally Hank Aaron
award winner 2-time NL batting champ
two-time home run leader his number 25
was retired by the Giants last season
and he's also a part of the Giants wall
of fame he's not a member of the
Baseball Hall of Fame because
unfortunately Barry Bonds his name is
surrounded by steroid allegations he was
a part of the Valco scandal he was
indicted on perjury and obstruction of
justice charges in 2007 he also did not
sign with the MLBPA licensing agreement
which is one of the reasons why you saw
him as John Dowd an MVP Baseball and
Reggie stocker and will be the show
Bonds career numbers are video game-like
and 22 seasons bonds finished with 2935
hits 601 doubles 77 triples and 760 two
home runs along with 1996 RBIs and 514
soem bases the only member of the 500
500 club he also walked 2550 eight times
faced with the 298 batting average for
44 on-base 607 slugging to give him a
career o-p-s at 10:51

the home run derby he played for the
Mariners Yankees Cardinals and raised in
his career he was a two-time all-star
four-time World Series champion of
course with the Yankees he won the
Silver Slugger in 1997 he also won an
Olympic gold medal with Team USA in 1988
after his baseball career he served as
the Marlins hitting coach in 2013 but
that relationship soon ended after he
was accused of verbal and physical abuse
of players on the Marlins specifically
dared Dietrich Tino Martinez played 16
years in Major League Baseball's 1925
hits 339 home runs as well as 1271 RBIs
he finished with a 271 average 344
on-base
471 given Oh PS 815 now Griffey won the
home run derby as I mentioned earlier in
98 and 99 so we skipped a 2000 which is
when Sammy Sosa won the home run derby
Sosa would play for the Rangers White
Sox Cubs and Orioles throughout his
career seven-time all-star MVP in 1998
six-time Silver Slugger as well as you
won the Hank Aaron award in nineteen
who's the home run leader in the
national league twice along with the RBI
leader and he had a pretty interesting
career on and off the field
in 2003 sammy sosa was ejected from a
game for having a corked bat he also got
a weird injury in 2004 sneezing and
never really played the same afterwards
he allegedly tested positive for peds in
2003 along with guys like Juan Gonzales
and others that were mentioned on that
list oh yeah and Sammy Sosa is also
white now yeah try to figure that one
out because these are real pictures in
Sammy Sosa's 18-year career he finished

doubles and 350 four home runs along
