Player Biography
Few batters hit the ball as hard as left-handed slugger Willie Stargell, who crushed 475 career homers, including a high of 48 in 1971. “He doesn’t just hit pitchers,” said fellow Hall of Famer Don Sutton, “He takes away their dignity.” He was more kind to teammates, rewarding them with “stars” for outstanding performance. His father-figure status earned him the nickname “Pops,” and his leadership helped the Pittsburgh Pirates win two World Series titles, in 1971 and 1979, when he shared National League Most Valuable Player honors.
