This week we profile the baseball life of the immortal Joe Morgan, who at 5'7", and 150 pounds, dominated the game and the second-base position like very few before him or since. Morgan develops a love for the game, cutting his teeth on the talented Oakland sandlots, and influenced by his farher's encouragement. Despite his diminutive stature, which made him overlooked throughout his youth, he displayed impressive talents, and confidence throughout his career. He plays ten years for the Houston Colt 45's, and establishes himself as a rising star in the National League, but it would be a career altering trade to the Cincinnati Reds Big Red Machine teams of the 1970's where he would attain legendary status as the team's sparkplug catalyst, He contributed to two Reds World Championships in 1975 and 1976, with back to back MVP seasons. His legacy in the game is not only earmarked by his on-field contributions, but his positive influence on younger players and his commitment to the sport until his passing in October of 2020. #JoeMorgan #CastlemontHighSchool #BobWright #BillyGoodman #HoustonColt45s #HoustonAstros #CincinnatiReds #BigRedMachine #TonyPerez #PeteRose #JohnnyBench #PhiladelphiaPhillies #SanFranciscoGiants #OaklandAthletics
