You were mostly correct...missed one by a few letters.

Oh wow, didn't realize Darrell Evans actually walked more than Dwight Evans over his career.

Yeah, I had to look that one up myself. Would never have guessed it in a million years.

Led the league in Walks twice earlier in his career, but nothing spectacular after that. Just consistently in the top 10 most other years.

Not a superstar by any means, but just had a remarkably long, durable, and consistent career. He also walked more than he struck out in his career...which always impresses me with a power hitter.

Looks like he flashed a pretty good glove to.
