Player Biography
In 1936, after being scolded by manager Eddie Dyer, Enos Slaughter vowed never to loaf again. His newfound commitment made him one of the game’s greatest hustlers. “[Slaughter] would run through a brick wall, if necessary, to make a catch, or slide into a pit of ground glass to score a run,” wrote New York Times sportswriter Arthur Daley. “Country” was a 10-time All-Star, and part of four World Series championship teams. He used a flat, level swing and was regarded as a consistent, clutch hitter. His “mad dash” home from first base on Harry Walker’s hit won the 1946 Fall Classic for the St. Louis Cardinals.
