Milwaukee Brewers: Wayback Wednesday featuring Greg Vaughn
Milwaukee Brewers fans remember the 1990’s for one thing: futility. Even with 92 wins in 1992, they still managed to win only 47% of their games for the decade.
One of the few bright spots for the Milwaukee Brewers was left fielder Greg Vaughn. Before Prince Fielder or Richie Sexson were mashing mammoth home runs, there was Vaughn sending shots to “Vaughn’s Valley” into the left field bleachers.
Drafted in 1986, number four overall, Vaughn quickly made a name for himself in the Brewers system. In his first full season in the minors Vaughn showed off the prodigious power that would lead him to MLB, hitting 33 home runs.
