More on Kevin Youkilis
Description from Wikipedia:
Kevin Edmund Youkilis (pronounced: /ˈjuːkəlɪs/; born March 15, 1979, in Cincinnati, Ohio), also known as "Youk" (pronounced: /ˈjuk/), is an All Star Major League Baseball player, who has played for the Boston Red Sox and its minor league affiliates throughout his professional career, which began in 2001.
Known for his extraordinary ability to get on base, Youkilis (while still a minor leaguer) was nicknamed "The Greek God of Walks" in the best-selling book, Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game. A Gold Glove Award-winning first baseman, he holds baseball's all-time record for most consecutive errorless games at first base. He is also a two-time World Series Champion, and winner of the 2008 Hank Aaron Award.
An intense performer on the playing field, Youkilis is known for his scrappiness, grittiness, dirt-stained jerseys, and home-plate collisions. He has excelled despite a physique that led many observers to understimate his athletic ability: he was called "roly-poly" by his high school coach, "pudgy" by his college coach, a "fat kid" by general manager Billy Beane, and a "thicker-bodied guy" by the Red Sox scout who recruited him.
