The great Joe DiMaggio was born in San Francisco on this day in 1914. He died in 1999.
We've posted a lot about his 56 game hitting streak. Of course, Joe was more than the streak. He won MVP's and led the Yankees to several World Series titles. He was the best player in the best team in baseball.
DiMaggio retired after the 1951 season: a .325 average, 361 HR, 1,537 RBI in 1,736 games.
In this book, you will learn that Joe was very quiet and shy but he could hit.
