Don Baylor was an American professional baseball player and manager who played for 19 seasons from 1970 to 1988 in Major League Baseball (MLB).

His major league debut came on September 18, 1970, for the Orioles.
Baylor played primarily as an outfielder and designated hitter for six teams during his career- Baltimore Orioles, Oakland Athletics, California Angels, New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, and Minnesota Twins. He was known for his power-hitting and was one of the most feared hitters in baseball during his heydays. He won the American League Most Valuable Player (MVP) award in 1979 and was also a three-time Silver Slugger award winner.
Baylor retired as a player after the 1988 season, with a .260 batting average, 338 home runs, and 1,276 runs batted in (RBI). After retiring from playing, he coached for several teams, including the Milwaukee Brewers, St. Louis Cardinals, Atlanta Braves, Colorado Rockies, and Los Angeles Angels. He was also a manager for the Colorado Rockies and the Chicago Cubs. Don Baylor's contributions to baseball have been recognized by numerous awards, including induction into the Baltimore Orioles' Hall of Fame in 1999, and being named the National League Manager of the Year in 1995. Sadly, Don Baylor passed away on August 7, 2017, due to cancer, leaving behind a legacy as one of the most underrated players in the game.
