Dick Schofield
Richard Craig Schofield is an American former professional baseball shortstop. He played 14 seasons in Major League Baseball from 1983 to 1996 for the California Angels, New York Mets, Toronto Blue Jays, and Los Angeles Dodgers. Schofield was with the World Series champion Toronto Blue Jays in 1993, but did not play in the postseason that year, after missing the bulk of the regular season with a broken arm. He shares the record for most seasons having at least 400 at bats and fewer than 100 hits, having done it four times.
On August 29, 1986, Schofield hit a walk-off grand slam homer against Detroit to give the Angels a 13–12 victory and culminate an eight-run rally in the last of the ninth inning.
Schofield signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1995 and finished his career with the Angels the following season, playing his final game on September 29, 1996.
He is the son of former Major League Baseball player Ducky Schofield, and the uncle of former outfielder Jayson Werth.
