Hall of Fame Biography: https://youtu.be/L5HFqTLWEHs
David Mark Winfield (Born in St. Paul, MN on October 3, 1951-) is the only athlete to be drafted into three professional sports by the San Diego Padres, the Atlanta Hawks (NBA) and Utah Stars (ABA) and the Minnesota Vikings (NFL). Winfield was one of the greatest all-around athletes in the history of professional sports. Playing primarily for the San Diego Padres (1973-1980) and New York Yankees (1981-1990), though spending time with four other franchises (Angels, Blue Jays, Twins, Indians), Winfield never spent a day in the minor leagues and earned twelve All-Star selections, seven Gold Gloves and six Silver Slugger Awards in his 23-year career. Winfield’s combination of speed, power, durability and fielding ability placed him among the best in the game for two decades. Winfield helped guide the Toronto Blue Jays to their first World Series title in 1992. Dave Winfield retired posting a .283 career batting average with 3,110 hits, 1,669 runs, 223 stolen bases, 1,833 RBI and 465 home runs. David Mark Winfield was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2001.
