Carlton Fisk is a former Major League Baseball catcher who played for 24 years with the Boston Red Sox and Chicago White Sox and was elected to the baseball Hall of Fame in 2000. Drafted by the Red Sox in 1967, Fisk played a few games for Boston in 1969 and 1971 but broke out for the Red Sox in his first full season in 1972. Fisk won the AL Gold Glove at Catcher and the AL Rookie of the Year awards that year. He played with the Red Sox until 1980, and with the White Sox from 1981-1993. In Fisk's long career, he caught 2,226 games, more than any other catcher in history. He was an 11-time All-Star and hit 376 career home runs. Fisk was signed by the White Sox as a free agent on March 18, 1981. The Boston Red Sox retired his uniform number 27 on September 4, 2000. On June 13, 2005, the Red Sox honored Fisk and the 12th-inning home run that won on October 20, 1975 in Game 6 of the 1975 World Series by naming the left field foul pole where it landed the Fisk Foul Pole.
