Braun, who batted left-handed and threw right-handed played 751 games for the Twins from 1971 – 1976 hitting .284 with a .376 OBP while playing every where but on the mound and behind the plate. After leaving the Twins, Steve went on to play for the Seattle Mariners, Kansas City Royals, Toronto Blue Jays, and the St. Louis Cardinals where he played in the 1982 and 1985 World Series.
