Mickey Hatcher is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on March 15, 1955 in Cleveland, Ohio, United States. American ex-professional baseball player and coach Michael Vaughn Hatcher was born March 15, 1955. From 1979 to 1990, he was an outfielder, first baseman, and third baseman in Major League Baseball. He also played for the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 1988 World Series. His most notable performance was as a player with the Dodgers, where he hit.368 (7/19), and scored two home runs.

His fun-loving attitude to baseball is what made him a favorite, especially on the 1988 World Champion Dodgers team. He was also featured in several presentations to the tune “Mickey Mouse Club”. After drawing walks, he would sprint to the first base and then sprint full speed around the bases. This earned him a lot media attention during the 1988 World Series. Joe Garagiola, NBC’s broadcaster, said that he was “The cover of The Saturday Evening Post!” He ran like he is afraid that they will take it off of the board! Hatcher only had one home run in 1988, but he hit two in the World Series.

Following his playing days, Hatcher was a coach for the Texas Rangers in 1993 and 1994, the manager of the Rookie League Great Falls Dodgers in 1996 and 1997 and began 1998 as the manager of the Single-A San Bernardino Stampede before becoming the hitting coach for the Dodgers in mid-season. In 2000, he became the hitting coach for the Los Angeles Angels, under manager Mike Scioscia, Hatcher’s teammate from the 1988 World Championship team. He was fired by the Angels on May 15, 2012, after the team started the season 16-21.

The Dodgers hired Hatcher in June as a special assistant to the General Manager. Hatcher’s position was not renewed in 2013.

From 1981 to 1986, he played for the Twins and hit.284 in 672 consecutive games. He then signed a free contract with the Dodgers on April 10, 1987.

He was also a wide receiver in 1976’s Fiesta Bowl. After being selected in the 5th Round of the June draft, he was drafted by the Dodgers twice: in 1974, in the 12th round in Houston by the Astros and 1976 in the 2nd by the New York Mets. Hatcher was then assigned to the Clinton Dodgers of the Class A Midwest League as an outfielder. Hatcher played in both the Class AA Texas League of San Antonio and AAA Albuquerque during the following season. He would split his time between thirdbase and the outfield, a sign of Hatcher’s major league career where he would not only be able to play at all three positions in the outfield but also at first and third base. Hatcher, who was a third-baseman for Ron Cey, made his major league debut in 1979, hitting.371 and scoring 10 runs. Hatcher received an RBI for his 7th-inning bases-loaded walk. Hatcher would reach.269 in 33 games in 1979 for the Dodgers. Hatcher would spend the 1980 season pitching in AAA, averaging.359 in 43 games before being called up to the parent team. Hatcher only hit.226 in his Dodgers debut season.
