   BIOGRAPHY
For eighteen years, Zack Wheat was a fixture in left field at the famous Ebbets Field in Brooklyn. In his first year with the Dodgers in 1909, this hard-hitting outfielder batted .304. This would be the first of 14 seasons with a batting average over .300. He won the NL batting title with a batting average of .335 in 1918. Wheat compiled all these awards during the now infamous "dead-ball" era. He also holds the Dodgers all-time club record for most games (2,322), most at-bats (8,859) and most hits (2,884). This long-time Dodger is now a Hall of Famer, invited to the land of the legendary in 1959.
