Walt was recently in the news for a professional takedown on the field. Walt had a good glove and solid OBP over 14 years in MLB. He made his first All Star Game in 1998 at 34 years old, while his young son was dealing with a serious health scare. Walt went on to a coaching and managerial career in Colorado and Atlanta.
