In a 14-season career, Bauer had a .277 batting average with 164 home runs and 703 RBI in 1544 games. He won the World Series with the Yankees seven times and holds the World Series record for the longest hitting streak, at 17 games. Perhaps his most notable performance came in the sixth and final game of the 1951 World Series, where he hit a three-run triple, and saved the game with a diving catch of a Sal Yvars liner for the last out.
