Third Baseman Scott Brosius
Scott David Brosius (born August 15, 1966 in Hillsboro, OR) was a Major League Baseball third baseman for the Oakland Athletics (1991-1997) and the New York Yankees (1998-2001).
His performance while an Athletic was lackluster at best, and was traded to the Yankees after the 1997 season. His first year in the Bronx was his best, batting .300 with 98 RBI's and 19 home-runs, leading the Yankees to a World Championship.
Although his next three years were not up to his phenomenal 1998 season, he remained a fan favorite. The Yanks won the American League pennant from 1999-2001, as well as the World Series from 1999-2000. Brosius won World Series MVP Award and was an All-Star in 1998, and won a Gold Glove in 1999.
