Woodie Held was a baseball player born in Sacramento, California in 1932. He began his professional baseball career with the New York Yankees in 1954. Held was primarily a shortstop and second baseman who had a strong throwing arm and great defensive skills. However, it was his power hitting abilities that set him apart from the rest of the pack. In 1958, while playing with the Kansas City Athletics, he led the American League in home runs with 29, setting a new career high. Although he played for just 4 years with the Yankees, his performance earned him a spot in the 1960 World Series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. More about Woodie Held
