John Cooney spent most of his life in baseball as a pitcher, first baseman, outfielder and coach. In more than 3000 big league at bats spanning three decades, he hit only two home runs. His two homers were hit in consecutive games in September 1939.
Sibby Sisti was a hard-nosed scrapper who was a fan favorite because of his willingness and determination in coping with injuries. Known for his versatility, Sisti played every position except pitcher and catcher during his big league career. He had a small role in the baseball film The Natural as the Braves manager.
