Dale Murphy was the king of 1980s baseball. While that may seem like an outlandish claim to the casual fan, I am here to tell you today that Murphy was one of if not the best player that played his prime throughout the 1980s. His ability to man center field at a gold glove level earned him 5 gold gloves throughout his 18 year big league career. A 7 time all star, 2 time MVP, with a 46.5 career WAR, 398 homers, and 2,111 hits. The dude could flat out ball! His humble nature and leadership presence is what made him an Atlanta icon. The Portland native won over those whom he came into contact with, and was able to be the best player in the league twice over in back to back seasons. Watch today to learn more about an Atlanta Brave and an all time baseball great, Dale Murphy.
