In 1991, New York Mets third baseman Howard Johnson put together a monster campaign. Two years removed from his first trip to the All-Star Game and his first 100 RBI season, Johnson decided it was time to differentiate himself further from the hotel chain of the same name.
Once again, Johnson was an All-Star for the Mets in 1991. In what ended up as his last productive year as a big league player, we saw him leave everything on the field and more.
Johnson hit a career-high 38 home runs and drove in 117 during this career-year.
