Carlton Fisk


Wikipedia - "Carlton Ernest Fisk (born December 26, 1947), nicknamed 'Pudge' or 'The Commander', is a former Major League Baseball catcher. During a 24-year baseball career, he played for both the Boston Red Sox (1969, 1971–1980) and Chicago White Sox (1981–1993). Fisk was known by the nickname 'Pudge' due to his 6'2", 220 lb frame. He was the first player to be unanimously voted American League Rookie of the Year (1972). Fisk is best known for 'waving fair' his game-winning home run in the 12th inning of Game 6 of the 1975 World Series, one of the greatest moments in World Series history."
