Rogers Hornsby was an American Major League Baseball (MLB) player and manager who is considered one of the greatest hitters of all time. He played for the St. Louis Cardinals, Chicago Cubs, Boston Braves, Philadelphia Phillies, and St. Louis Browns from 1915 to 1937.

He also led the league in runs batted in (RBI) four times and slugging percentage six times. Hornsby's career batting average of .354 is the highest of any right-handed batter in MLB history.

Hornsby was also a successful manager, winning the 1932 World Series with the St. Louis Cardinals. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1942.
