History: The Big Hurt didn’t spend long in the minor leagues, suiting up for the Sarasota White Sox and Gulf Coast League White Sox in 1989 after a dominant two-sport career on scholarship at Auburn University. He would move on to the Birmingham Barons in 1990, and in August would don a Chicago White Sox jersey for the first time. He spent the next 15 seasons with Chicago, breaking and setting hitting records for the franchise along the way as a first baseman and designated hitter. As a member of the White Sox, Oakland Athletics and Toronto Blue Jays, Frank Thomas earned 5 All-Star selections (earned consecutively), 4 Silver Slugger awards, 2 American League MVP awards, and was the 1997 American League batting champion. The White Sox also considered him an instrumental piece of their 2005 World Series championship and awarded him a ring, despite Thomas not officially appearing on the World Series roster due to injury. Frank Thomas was enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2014.
