| Talk about a utility player!
He played from 1878-1894 (a Giant from 1883-89; 1893-94). In 7 years of pitching he compiled a 164-102 record and a career ERA of 2.10. Also, he has 826 games at 2B, 491 games at SS, 215 games at OF, and 46 games at 3B! He only hit 26 HR, but he stole 540 bases! He had a .275 AVG - .314 OBP - .341 SLG. His OPS+ was only 92. Obviously he's in the HOF.
