Wilver Dornel Stargell was a Major League Baseball player who spent his entire twenty-one year Hall of Fame career with the Pittsburgh Pirates (1962-1982). Did you know that Willie, his nickname, won the 1979 Most Valuable Player Award, the 1979 League Championship Most Valuable Player Award, and the 1979 World Series Most Valuable Player Award — the only player in Major League history to have won all three MVPs during the same season? Too easy? Did you know he accomplished the MVP trifecta exactly one year after The Sporting News named him the Comeback Player of the Year?

Baseball Almanac Research Library
Willie Stargell didn't just hit 475 career home runs, he crushed home runs. Hall of Fame pitcher Don Sutton in The Pittsburgh Pirates Encyclopedia (David Finoli, Sports Publishing, LLC, 05/01/2003, Page 256) once said, "He doesn't just hit pitchers. He takes their dignity." Let's take a dignified look at some of Pop's numbers of interest:
1 - Willie Stargell crushed one home run on June 25, 1971, it hit a seat in Section 601, and it was the longest home run ever hit at Veterans Stadium (half credit to Jim Bunning). Only two other players would hit a home run into the 600 level, the upper deck, at the Vet (before it closed), Butch Huskey (Section 638) & Ruben Rivera (Section 638). The spot where Stargell's ball landed was marked with a yellow star with a black "S" inside a white circle until Pops passed away, the white circle was then painted black.
2 - Willie Stargell hit two home runs out of Dodger Stadium. Yes, out of of the Stadium, and he was the first player to ever do so.
