He wouldn't be in for one thing. Again, TWICE hitting walk offs in WS is the highlight. But he has an MVP, Series MVP, multiple all star games, 2 rings. I looked it up and he also has won the Hank Aaron award & a Gold Glove. Currently 69 hits from 2500, 33 HR from 400, 178 short of 1500 RBI & a .300 career BA & .897 OPS.

The numbers are borderline. The awards are stacked. And the moments are unique.

So if he were to go in tomorrow, it would be for more than just one thing.
