RyanB06 Posted January 10, 2004 Posted January 10, 2004 Might be the Spaceman, Bill Lee.

NJTank Posted January 10, 2004 Posted January 10, 2004 I think Bill Lee had a beard when he was with the Expos. Ron Hunt who was hit by allot of pitches makes teh most sense. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com
zoneranger Posted January 10, 2004 Author Posted January 10, 2004 Hunt once said, "Some people give their bodies to science; I give mine to baseball." He retired with three major league records for HBP: most times in a career (243); in a season (50, 1971); and in a game (three, tied). For seven straight years he led the NL in HBP. He had other ways to get on, as two .300 seasons and good walk totals showed. He set Expo team records for fewest strikeouts in a season (19, 1973) and fewest times hitting into double plays (one, 1971). Though he played on the early, horrid Met teams (in '64 he was their first All-Star), he was heartbroken when he was traded to the Dodgers in November 1966 for Tommy Davis.Whoa--the Met's first All-star!
