Keith Hernandez was a left-handed first baseman who played 17 seasons for the St. Louis Cardinals, New York Mets and Cleveland Indians, finishing with a .296 average, 162 home runs and 2,182 hits. He won 11 consecutive Gold Gloves from 1978 to 1988, the most by any first baseman, and charged so aggressively on bunts that opponents sometimes avoided bunting against him. He shared the 1979 National League MVP award with Willie Stargell after hitting .344, and he won World Series rings with the 1982 Cardinals and the 1986 Mets. A 42nd-round draft pick in 1971 out of the College of San Mateo, he reached St. Louis in August 1974. The Cardinals traded him to the Mets on June 15, 1983, for Neil Allen and Rick Ownbey, and in 1987 he became the first team captain in Mets history. He was a five-time All-Star. After retiring in 1990 he appeared on Seinfeld and has been a Mets television analyst since 2006. The Mets retired his number 17 in 2022.
