In 1978 Willie Wilson reached the big leagues for good. Over the next dozen years Willie was the lead-off hitter for the Royals,
helping them win the World Series in 1985. His best season was 1980 – 133 runs scored and 230 hits, with a .326 batting average. Two seasons later he won the American League batting title with a .332 average.
Willie finished his 19 year career with the Oakland A's and the Chicago Cubs, retiring after the 1994 season. Year after year he was among the league leaders in steals and triples, leading the American League five times in the latter category. Wilson owned the major league record: 705 At Bats in 1980 until 2007 when it was surpassed by Jimmy Rollins. |
