Tanner Joe Meyer


Nickname: Joey, Big Stick
Career Stats: .251 AVG, .300 OBP, .416 SLG, 18 HR, 74 RBI, 119 H, 24 2B, 1 SB, 124 K
DYK: The first player to hit a walk-off homerun off of Roger Clemens. Had more strike outs than hits during his two seasons with the Brewers. Joey Meyer, Rob Deer and Gary Sheffield were supposed to lead the Brewers to many World Series titles in the late 80’s and early 90’s. That didn't really go according to plan. He hit .297 with 120 homers in 464 minor league games from ’84 to ’87, but only hit .251 with 18 homers in 156 games for the Brewers.
