This is a trick question. Fred Lynn was both. It was the first time in league history that a person won both titles. Hi was playing for Boston at the time.
He was a player know for battling with opponents and umpires. He played for the Cardinals and the Phillies. He was mainly a shortstop, but he played some second base. He compiled a lifetime batting average of .273 in 969 games, with 51 home runs. He batted lefthanded and threw righthanded.
Ok..Ok..you wouldn't be looking this up in Baseball Digest now would you? If so..I congratulate your library of baseball books, for I too am a collector...Long live Putsy Caballero...(look him up..)
His real name is Ralph Joseph Caballero. Signed by the Philadelphia Blue Jays as an amateur free agent in 1944. He played for eight seasons and he age was very young. He started at the ripe age of 16 and played until he was 24. 1948 was his best year by FAR! He played SS, 2B, and 3B.
