Leading the National League in \u003cstrong data-start=\"195\" data-end=\"238\"\u003ehome runs for seven consecutive seasons\u003c\/strong\u003e, Kiner was the definition of power during an era where offense was far less explosive than today. As the centerpiece of the \u003cstrong data-start=\"363\" data-end=\"385\"\u003ePittsburgh Pirates\u003c\/strong\u003e, his ability to consistently drive the ball out of the park made him one of baseball’s premier attractions and ultimately secured his place in the \u003cstrong data-start=\"533\" data-end=\"549\"\u003eHall of Fame\u003c\/strong\u003e.
