Noted sports personality and Boston superfan Bill Simmons once described Manny Ramirez as something of an “idiot savant”: a grown-up man child with a preternatural ability to hit a baseball better than 99.99% of anyone on Earth. Ramirez was a nine-time Silver Slugger, and one of 25 players to hit 500 career home runs. His 21 grand slams are third all-time, and his 29 postseason home runs are the most in MLB history. In 1999, he set the Cleveland Indians’ team record for RBIs in a single season, hitting 165 of them. But most importantly, his 29 home runs and 78 RBI in the postseason are the highest such totals in major league history.
