Item Description

Darryl Strawberry Sr. is an American former professional baseball right fielder and author. Strawberry is well known for his 17-year career in Major League Baseball. Throughout the 1980s and early 1990s, Strawberry was one of the most feared sluggers in the sport, known for his prodigious home runs and his intimidating presence in the batter's box with his 6-foot-6 frame and his long, looping swing that elicited comparisons to Ted Williams.

During his career, he helped lead the New York Mets to a World Series championship in 1986 and the New York Yankees to three World Series championships in 1996, 1998 and 1999.  A popular player during his career, Strawberry was voted to the All-Star Game eight straight times from 1984–1991. Strawberry was formerly an analyst for SportsNet New York. His memoir, Straw: Finding My Way, was written in collaboration with author John Strausbaugh, was published on April 28, 2009 by Ecco Press, an imprint of HarperCollins publishers.

Darryl Strawberry won the National League Rookie of the Year Award in 1983 by batting .257, smacking 26 home runs and driving in 74 runs for the New York Mets. Over the course of his 17-year career he crushed 335 home runs, drove in 1,000 runs, was selected to an amazing eight straight All-Star Games and, in 1988, he led the National League in home runs with 39. Strawberry won a World Series Championship with the Mets in 1986 and three more with the New York Yankees in 1996, 1998 and 1999. This Darryl Strawberry autograph is guaranteed authentic and includes a Steiner Sports Certificate of Authenticity and an accompanying tamper-evident Steiner Hologram. The Steiner Means It's Real.
