ANGELS HALL OF FAME

GARRET ANDERSON
One of the most productive offensive players in franchise
history, Garret Anderson spent 15 of his 17 professional seasons
playing for the Angels. He was inducted into the Club’s Hall of Fame
on Aug. 20, 2016.
A two-time Silver Slugger recipient, three-time All-Star and
four-time Angels Team MVP, Anderson remains atop the franchise
all-time list in several key offensive categories including games
(2,013), at-bats (7,989), hits (2,368), total bases (3,743), extra-base
hits (796), doubles (489) and RBI (1,292). He also ranks second in
runs scored (1,024), behind Mike Trout, and his 272 home runs rank
third behind Trout and Tim Salmon.
Following his selection in the fourth round of the 1990 Draft
out of Kennedy High School in Granada Hills, CA, Anderson made
his Major League debut July 27, 1994 vs. Oakland at the age of 22.
He would go on to hit .321 with 19 doubles, 16 home runs and 69
RBI in 1995 and finish second in the American League Rookie of
the Year voting.
A key piece in the Club’s 2002 title run, Angels fans will long
remember his bases-clearing, three-run double in Game Seven of
the 2002 World Series. Anderson completed the 2002 Postseason
batting a combined .300 with four doubles, two home runs and 13
RBI.
After finishing fourth in A.L. MVP voting in 2002, he returned a year later with another solid All-Star
season. During the All-Star Game in Chicago, he became the first player since Cal Ripken Jr. in 1991 to
become both the Home Run Derby Champion and MVP of the All-Star Game.
VLADIMIR GUERRERO
Vladimir Guerrero became the 15th individual inducted into the Angels Hall of Fame on Aug. 26, 2017.
No player in Club history had more of an immediate impact than ‘Vladdy’ in his initial campaign with the
Angels in 2004. In that season, Guerrero captured American League MVP honors as he lifted the Halos to
their first A.L. West crown since 1986. Vlad became just the second player in Angels history to garner MVP
honors, joining Don Baylor in 1979.
During the 2004 season, Guerrero tied a Club record and led the A.L. with 366 total bases while also
pacing the junior circuit with 124 runs. His .337
average remains the highest single-season mark by
a right-hander in team annals.
Most impressive during the 2004 campaign
were Guerrero’s numbers down the stretch. He
was named A.L. Player of the Month for September
batting .371 with 24 runs, 17 extra-base hits (10
HR) and 23 RBI.
Guerrero remains among the Angels’ all-
time leaders in several key offensive categories
including average (1st, .319), slugging percentage
(2nd, .546), on-base percentage (4th, .381), home

runs (7th, 173), RBI (8th, 616), extra-base hits (8th,
377), total bases (9th, 1,767), doubles (10th, 194),
runs (11th, 544) and hits (12th, 1,034). Guerrero
was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame,
July 29, 2018, becoming the first player depicted
with an Angels cap on his Hall of Fame plaque in
Cooperstown.
