For the first time in a few years, Billy Hamilton was healthy at the end of the season. He played in a career-high 153 games, avoiding some of the injuries that cost him in past Septembers.

In 2017, it was a left thumb injury. There was an oblique injury in 2016 and the year before that it was his right shoulder.

"I’m just happy to be able to finish the season one time in my career," Hamilton said.
