Bob Boone(I)

IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Bob Boone is an American former catcher and manager in Major League Baseball (MLB) who was a four-time All-Star. Born in San Diego, California, Bob Boone is the son of a Major League player, the late third baseman Ray Boone, and he is the father of two Major Leaguers: former second baseman Bret Boone and former utility infielder Aaron Boone. All four family members were named All-Stars during their careers.

Bob Boone was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in the sixth round (126th overall) of the 1969 amateur draft after attending Stanford University. He was brought to the majors in late 1972. While Boone never had excellent hitting numbers, he was a phenomenal defensive catcher, committing only eight errors and allowing only three passed balls in the 1977 season. Boone made the National League All-Star team three times in a Phillies uniform and helped the team win the 1980 World Series.

In 2005, Boone was inducted into the Philadelphia Baseball Wall of Fame.
