Dick Green spent his entire 15-year professional career with the A’s. He was a fantastic gloveman at three positions in the infield, but excelled at second base where he was lightning quick at turning a double play. Green was part of three Oakland teams that won the World Series, and won the Babe Ruth Award as MVP of the 1974 Fall Classic.
