About Craig Biggio, Hall of Famer

Craig Biggio spent all 20 seasons of his Major League Baseball career with the Houston Astros, from 1988 to 2007, playing catcher, second base, and outfield. A seven-time All-Star, he was the only player ever to earn All-Star honors and Silver Slugger Awards at both catcher and second base. Alongside Jeff Bagwell and Lance Berkman, Biggio formed the "Killer B's" core that led Houston to six playoff appearances between 1997 and 2005, culminating in the franchise's first World Series appearance in 2005. He finished his career with 3,060 hits, 668 doubles (sixth all-time), and held numerous Astros franchise records. Biggio was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2015, becoming the first Hall member depicted in an Astros uniform on his plaque.

Did you know? In 1998, Biggio became the first player since Tris Speaker to collect 50 doubles and 50 stolen bases in the same season, also hitting 20 home runs to join the exclusive 20–50 club.
