About Mickey Mantle
Mickey Charles Mantle (1931-1995) was born in Spavinaw, Oklahoma, and raised in the mining town of Commerce, the source of his nickname "the Commerce Comet." His father, an amateur player, named him after catcher Mickey Cochrane and taught him to switch-hit. Signed by the Yankees in 1949, Mantle debuted in 1951 and grew into the game's premier center fielder. A switch-hitting slugger, he won the Triple Crown in 1956 (.353, 52 home runs, 130 RBIs) and was a three-time AL MVP (1956, 1957, 1962). Entering 1958 he was the two-time reigning MVP and the sport's biggest star. Over 18 seasons, all with New York, he was an All-Star in 16 of them and won seven World Series titles, hitting a record 18 postseason home runs. He retired with 536 home runs, 2,415 hits, and a .298 average, and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1974.
