Roy Campanella excelled as a catcher for the Brooklyn Dodgers. A three-time National League MVP (1951, 1953, 1955), he showcased extraordinary offensive and defensive skills. Over his ten-year MLB career, Campanella batted .276 with 242 home runs and 856 RBIs. Renowned for his defensive prowess, he won three Gold Glove Awards (1955-1957) and played an integral role in the Dodgers' success, helping them secure five pennants and the 1955 World Series championship. Despite a tragic car accident in 1958 that left him paralyzed, Campanella's impact on the game endures, and he remains an iconic figure in baseball history.
