Hardball Warehouse Welcomes Chris Chambliss

Hardball Warehouse is excited to announce that Chris Chambliss has joined our staff as an instructor.  Chris Chambliss was a Major League Baseball player from 1971-1988 for the Cleveland Indians, New York Yankees, and Atlanta Braves. In 1970, Chris was selected by the Cleveland Indians in the 1st round (1st pick overall) of the free-agent draft (January 17, 1970) and in 1971, was named AL Rookie of the Year. Chambliss played first base and was known as a great clutch hitter throughout his career.

He was traded to the Yankees from the Indians in April 1974.  In 1976, he received a selection to the All Star team.  In the 1976 American League Championship Series, his home run off Mark Littell of the Kansas City Royals gave the Yankees their first trip to the World Series since 1964.

Chambliss was the hitting star of the 1976 ALCS, as he also hit a two-run homer in Game 3 to help the Yankees win that game 5 to 3. He hit an ALCS record .524 with 2 home runs and eight RBIs. In the 1976 World Series against the Cincinnati Reds, Chambliss hit .313 (5-for-16) with one RBI.

Chambliss played three more seasons with the Yankees, winning a Gold Glove for fielding in 1978. He then moved to Atlanta from 1980-1986. He had a short stint with the Yankees in 1987.  After his playing days ended, Chambliss became a hitting instructor for several teams.
