Remembering Robin Yount

First the easy stuff.
First Ballot Hall of Famer
2 time MVP at two positions. SS and CF. 3000 hits.
His 1,479 games at shortstop and 1,150 games in center field are the most by a player at two positions.

Started for the Brewers at age 18, he was the draft pick the Rangers passed on for David Clyde.

The Amazing Fact:
Yount actually retired from Baseball in 1978 at the age of 22 to pursue a career on
the PGA. Luckily for the Brewers in only lasted a few months.
