One of my favorite baseball players ever, Jim Thome, has been been inducted into Major League Baseball's Hall of Fame. With the Tribe, he was a .287 career hitter with a franchise record 337 home runs and 937 RBIs. Hit 52 home runs for the Tribe in 2002. Finished his career with 612 home runs as one of the greatest left handed sluggers in baseball history. A 5x All-Star and Silver Slugger in 1996. Two World Series appearances for the Indians in 1995 and 1997. Widely regarded as one of the top left handed sluggers in the history of the sport.
- 8th all time in Home Runs
- 23rd all time in SLG%
- 26th all time in RBIs
Best power hitter in Cleveland Indians history. Congrats Jimmy.
Time to retire that #25.
