Career
A lifetime .306 hitter, Molitor was one of the most consistent players throughout the 1980s. Although he never won a major award, he finished second in Rookie of the Year balloting in his debut 1978 season, and finished second in American League Most Valuable Player Award balloting in 1993. Along with fellow Brewers Hall of Famer Robin Yount, Molitor led the team to its only World Series appearance, in 1982, when they lost in seven games to the St. Louis Cardinals. Molitor batted .355 in the Series. In 1987, Molitor maintained one of the longest hitting streaks in baseball history, hitting safely in 39 straight games. The last six years of his career were split evenly between the Toronto Blue Jays, and then his hometown Minnesota Twins. His 1993 season with the Jays was one of his best ever, in which he hit 22 home runs, drove in 111 runs, and finished with a batting average of .332. Only Frank Thomas's fantastic season prevented Molitor from winning the MVP award. Molitor retired at the end of the 1998 season and was inducted into the Hall in his first year of eligibility. -
