Winfield earned a total of 7 Gold Glove Awards in the outfield, as well as 6 Silver Slugger Awards. Winfield never won an MVP award, and never led the league in batting average, on-base percentage, slugging percentage, home runs, doubles, triples, or runs scored, but he had a long, successful career with over 3,100 hits and more than 1,800 RBI. He currently works in the front office of the San Diego Padres and as a spring training instructor. Rickey Henley Henderson (Man of Steal) was born in 1958 in Chicago, IL.
