Repost from @vintage_bubble_gum Between 1984 and 1989, Don Mattingly averaged 203 hits, 27 home runs, 43 doubles, and 114 runs batted in per season while batting .327. He won the 1985 AL MVP, was a 5-time Gold Glove Award winner at first base, and 6-time All-Star during that period. Mattingly began having back problems during the 1990 season, limiting his playing time and affecting his hitting ability. Though he underwent extensive therapy during the 1991 off-season, he never fully recovered to
