These are MLB’s best same-named doppelgangers

December twenty ninth, 2022

A model of this story initially ran in January 2022.

It’s absolutely occurred to you. You’re looking for a specific famous person participant, or suppose you are about to snag a killer deal on a rookie card and you see it: It’s a baseball doppelganger, or, to place it in layman’s phrases, you’ve got discovered a far-less-famous huge leaguer who simply occurs to share his identify with a star.

Though these gamers — who, as huge leaguers, are nonetheless among the many best to ever play baseball on this planet — have been overshadowed, they nonetheless have tales to inform and moments value rediscovering. I imply, to their mother and father and siblings and spouses, they are the best to ever decide up a bat.

Today, we’re going to shine a few of that gentle again on these less-famous different guys, these shared-name huge leaguers. Here are eight of them.

Forget the Big Hurt, that is the Big Donkey. Were it not for the White Sox slugger’s emergence as an absolute famous person, one who’s nonetheless hawking numerous merchandise at the moment, we’d most likely keep in mind this Thomas somewhat extra.

After all, this Thomas — an outfielder and first baseman who performed from 1951-66 — hit 25 or extra dwelling runs six instances and was elected to 3 All-Star Games. He even claimed possession of the Mets’ single-season dwelling run document till Dave Kingman got here alongside and smashed 36 dwelling runs in 1975.

Stop me in the event you heard this one earlier than: José Bautista acquired his huge break as an Orioles’ Rule 5 Draft decide. But whereas the slugger Bautista acquired handed round by just a few groups that season — and didn’t get away till becoming a member of the Blue Jays in 2009 — this Bautista was a pitcher whose finest season got here when the O’s picked him up in 1988. He posted a 4.30 ERA in 171 2/3 IP that season, and even set a contemporary MLB document with a 70-pitch full sport towards the Mariners on Sept. 3, 1988.

Not dangerous for being one of many “different guys” — even when he did take the loss that day because the O’s didn’t scratch a single run throughout the plate towards Mark Langston.

“I pitched the best game of my career and it only took 70 pitches, but I had nothing to show for it when it was all said and done,” Bautista would later say.

He additionally pulled off one different factor that the opposite Bautista by no means did: He acquired his Spring Training photograph carried out “news anchor style.”

That is, he determined to forgo pants.

Joe Morgan both complaining concerning the strike zone or … attempting to get a spider out of his baseball pants.

He could not have had an amazing huge league profession — particularly in comparison with the Hall of Famer — however that doesn’t imply Morgan didn’t make a major influence. This Morgan bounced across the Majors, getting cups of espresso from 1959-64, hitting solely .193 alongside the best way. But in Boston, he was a cult hero often called “Turnpike Joe” for his offseason job driving a snowplow. (I’m wondering if he had a catchy little jingle, too.)

Born in Walpole, Mass., Morgan was a long-time supervisor of the Pawtucket Red Sox, together with on the evening of the legendary 33-inning sport on April 18, 1981. But in contrast to the gamers who needed to stick round, Morgan managed to get an excellent evening’s sleep that night after he was ejected within the twenty first inning.

Later, Morgan would grow to be the supervisor of the Red Sox in 1988 — inspiring them to win their first 12 video games with the brand new skipper in cost. That earned a brand new nickname at Fenway: “Morgan Magic.”

His legacy was sturdy sufficient that the Red Sox honored their former skipper in 2013, with lots of the finest stars that performed underneath Morgan showing that night.

Of course, regardless of all this, loads of folks nonetheless blended up with Morgan the Hall of Fame second baseman.

“I’ve signed a ton of his cards,” Morgan stated. “I’ve got his signature down pretty good.”

The Braves’ Randy Johnson

This seems to have been a standard identify at hand out within the Nineteen Sixties as two different Randy Johnsons reached the Majors — each within the ‘80s — and none have done it since. Both were all also mustachioed, too, just like the towering Hall of Fame hurler … and that’s the place the similarities finish.

The first Randy Johnson reached the large leagues in two separate seasons and managed to discover a little bit of success with the Twins in 1982 — hitting 10 dwelling runs in 89 video games. Unfortunately, that was the final time he noticed the Majors, and he completed his profession within the Minors three years later.

The different Randy Johnson was very practically teammates with the extra well-known Randy. He broke into the large leagues with the Braves in 1982 — the identical yr that Atlanta drafted the lanky left-hander out of highschool earlier than he turned them right down to play for USC. This Johnson performed for 3 seasons — smacking six dwelling runs in 547 plate appearances — and continues to be within the sport at the moment as a scout for the Tigers.

Our two Luis Gonzalezes truly crossed paths very often, each taking part in within the NL West. In truth, Luis Alberto Gonzalez — who performed for the Rockies — made his huge league debut on April 6, 2004, towards his extra famous-name twin and Randy Johnson.

Perhaps even higher, in his first sport, Gonzalez went deep with a two-run homer within the ninth inning within the Rockies’ 6-2 victory. That’s a technique to impress your namesake.

Unfortunately for him, the extra well-known Gonzalez homered twice that day. Even on our Gonzalez’s finest day, he was nonetheless topped by the World Series winner. Ah nicely.

After taking part in nearly each place for the Rockies over the following two seasons, Gonzalez headed to Japan to play for the Yomiuri Giants. But after violating Nippon Professional Baseball’s drug coverage, he was launched by the membership in 2008.

From 1993-94, you would discuss concerning the pitcher Pedro Martinez, and it could have been solely comprehensible that somebody would confuse one for the opposite.

The Pedro Martinez on the Hall of Fame monitor posted a 3.08 ERA in 251 2/3 IP for the Dodgers and Expos these seasons. At the identical time, our southpaw Pedro had a 2.73 mark in 105 1/3 for the Padres. (It additionally signifies that, in the event you might someway mix them — like in “The Fly” — we might have had the best ambidextrous hurler the world has ever seen … or a horrible nightmare creature. About 50/50 both means.)

Then, like Robert Frost’s poem, their paths diverged.

One would go on to grow to be arguably the best pitcher of all-time, dominating batters through the sport’s offensive peak.

The different was included in an 11-player commerce that despatched Derek Bell to the Astros and introduced Ken Caminiti to the Padres. Unfortunately, that marked the spotlight of Martinez’s profession. From there, the left-hander by no means had an ERA underneath six and was out of the large leagues by 1997.

We got here this near an all Kevin Brown battery. The right-handed hurler, who used his sinker to win 211 huge league video games, pitched for the Texas Rangers from 1988-94.

The catcher Kevin Brown was drafted by the Rangers in 1994. Had our timeline been completely different by only a few years, the 2 would have not less than met up on some again area or Spring Training sport. Sadly, since these had been pre-Twitter days, we wouldn’t even have the form of blurry images beat writers now share.

The much less infamous Kevin Brown was sadly destined to a profession of being the third catcher on the depth chart, and he completed with seven dwelling runs throughout elements of seven seasons — suiting up for 4 completely different groups alongside the best way.

There’s one different Kevin Brown who made the large leagues: Kevin Dewayne Brown, who pitched for the Mets, Brewers and Mariners from 1990-92, posting a 3-5 document and 4.82 ERA in 89 2/3 IP.

Long earlier than the Cy Young Award winner was concerned in a number of franchise-defining trades, there was this Cliff Lee, who would not even have an AP file photograph. This Lee was an outfielder, first baseman and catcher with the Pirates, Reds, and — identical to the opposite Lee — Phillies and Cleveland from 1919-26.

He even confirmed off a good quantity of energy — hitting .322 with 17 dwelling runs (the second-most on the crew) with the Phillies in 1922, although these would stay the high-water marks for his huge league profession.

Far extra importantly, Lee’s first membership in 1914 was referred to as the Muscatine Buttonmakers. Just think about how good that might look on a Minor League ballcap at the moment.
