Ozzie Guillen is a former Venezuelan professional baseball player and a retired MLB shortstop. Born in Ocumare del Tuy, Venezuela, he began his career in baseball as a teenager, eventually signing with the San Diego Padres in 1980 as an undrafted free agent. He spent two seasons with the Padres before being traded to the Chicago White Sox in 1985, where he would spend the bulk of his playing career. Guillen quickly became one of the most reliable and consistent shortstops in the league, earning an All-Star selection in 1988, as well as a Gold Glove award in 1990. More about Ozzie Guillen

Guillen's career took off with his alma mater, the Chicago White Sox. He became the team's starting shortstop in his first season with the club, and over the next decade, he was one of the most reliable players on the South Side. Guillen's stellar defensive play earned him Gold Gloves in 1990 and 1991, and he led the American League in fielding percentage in 1991. However, Guillen is perhaps best known for his leadership during the 2005 playoffs, when he led the White Sox to their first World Series championship in 88 years. In his career, he accumulated 1,764 hits, a .264 batting average, and 619 runs batted in before retiring as a player in 2000.In total, we tracked 1162 items since 01/01/2008.
