An unprecedented combination of power and defense, with an unusual mixture of strength, coordination, and speed, made him one of the game's greatest third basemen. He ranked seventh on the all-time list with 548 homers, and his eight home run titles, including one tie, were bettered only by Babe Ruth. He hit 40 or more home runs on three occasions and topped 30 ten other times. His 48 home runs in 1980 were the most ever by a third baseman, and he hit four in one game in 1976. A three-time MVP, he also won 10 Gold Gloves for fielding excellence.
