Baseball Historian Biography

Joey Cora, Infielder 1987-1998 - San Diego Padres; Chicago White Sox and Seattle Mariners

Switch-hitting Joey Cora, 5'8" and 155 lbs., played the game with great desire, and never stopped hustling. In 1993 with the Chicago White Sox, he had 10 bunt hits, scored 95 runs, batted .268 with 155 hits, and was second in the league with 13 triples. Traded to the Seattle, and this shouldn't come as a surprise, Cora's play to win style, made him one of the Mariners' fans favorite players during the mid-90s. Joey Cora's career batting average - .262. It was always some other hitter who powered the home run, but it was Joey Cora who made the fielding gem of the day, laid down the bunt to advance the runner, chopped the ball through the infield, or whatever it took to win the ballgame. We tip our cap to Joey Cora, a winning ballplayer. Baseballhistorian.com
