Mike Schmidt Biography

Mike Schmidt’s resume includes twelve All-Star selections, three National League MVP Awards, ten Gold Glove Awards, six Silver Slugger Awards, and a World Series ring.  But that’s only the half of it.  During his 18 seasons at the hot corner with the Philadelphia Phillies he led the NL in homeruns eight times and RBI four times, ultimately resulting in 548 big flies and 1,595 runs batted in over the course of his career.  With a resume like that you’d be correct in assuming that he is enshrined in both the Philadelphia Phillies and National Baseball Hall of Fames. 

Schmidt is widely considered to be not only one of the best baseball players of his time, but also one of the best athletes.  Having said that, when his baseball career came to an end in 1989 he chose to stay out of the spotlight, preferring a more private lifestyle to the one he’d experienced during his 20 years in professional baseball.  However, he has made many speaking appearances and played in many charity golf tournaments with the goal of spreading his love for baseball and helping out those in need.
