Coco Crisp Marquee

b. November 1, 1979 · Cleveland Indians 2002–2005, 2016, Boston Red Sox 2006–2008, Kansas City Royals 2009, Oakland Athletics 2010–2016

He led the league with 49 stolen bases in 2011, at thirty-one, and finished with 309 across fifteen seasons, along with 1,572 hits, 308 doubles and a .265 average. He hit the single that won the seventh game of the 2007 Championship Series for Boston, which then swept the World Series.

Seven of the seasons were in Oakland, where he was the center fielder and leadoff man for three straight division winners from 2012, and Cleveland traded for him again in September 2016, in time for him to play in the World Series the Indians lost to the Cubs in seven.

He was never an All-Star. He was born Covelli Crisp and got the nickname from a sister as a child. He is not on a Hall of Fame ballot.
