Description
Lyle Overbay, former Toronto Blue Jays first baseman, celebrates his 49th birthday. Drafted in 1999, he made brief MLB appearances before joining the Brewers in a trade. Overbays elite defense and patient approach at the plate made him a valuable asset to the Jays, who acquired him in 2005. His breakout year was 2006, hitting 32 home runs and setting career highs. Despite setbacks, he maintained productivity until retiring in 2014, leaving with a .266 average, 151 home runs, and 675 RBIs. Checkout Solipillow.com
