About the Player
Walter Arthur 'Hoot' Evers (February 8, 1921 – January 25, 1991) was an American baseball outfielder, scout, coach, and executive.
Evers played professional baseball from 1941 to 1942 and 1946 to 1956, including 12 seasons in Major League Baseball with the Detroit Tigers (1941, 1946–1952, 1954), Boston Red Sox (1952–1954), New York Giants (1954), Baltimore Orioles (1954, 1956), and Cleveland Indians (1955–1956).
Evers missed the 1943, 1944, and 1945 seasons due to military service during World War II. He was selected to the American League All-Star team in 1948 and 1950. During the 1950 season, he compiled a .323 batting average with 67 extra-base hits and led the American League with 11 triples. Multiple broken bones, beanings, and other injuries slowed his production after the 1950 season.
After his playing career ended, Evers worked for the Cleveland Indians as a scout, coach, and farm system executive from 1957 to 1970. He then served as the Detroit Tigers' director of player development from 1970 to 1978.
