Player Biography
Baseball’s most durable catcher, with 24 years behind the plate and more games (2,226) than any backstop in history at the time of his retirement, Carlton “Pudge” Fisk split his career between the Boston Red Sox and Chicago White Sox. Fisk was known for his tremendous intensity, summed up by Red Sox manager Eddie Kasko: “He plays as if he were on the Crusades.” The 11-time All-Star hit 376 career regular season home runs. His memorable 12th-inning blast off the foul pole at Fenway Park in Game 6 of the 1975 World Series gave the Red Sox a 7-6 win over Cincinnati’s “Big Red Machine.”
