Hall of Game - Will Clark

"The Thrill is gone"

How ballsy would you have to be to use your nickname (and a blues classic popularized by B.B. King) as your answering machine message?

Will "The Thrill" Clark ballsy.

In his fifteen year career, Clark put up great numbers; .303 batting average, just under 300 home runs, more than 2100 hits and over 1200 RBI. Before Derek Jeter became the definition of it, Will Clark was clutch.

More to the point, he was fun to watch.

Unlike other players from his era, The Thrill has never been mentioned as someone who used/abused PEDs, yet that allowed him to be a six time All-Star.

Just look at some of the years he had, and remember, while he will never be a member of the Hall of Fame, Will Clark was The Thrill for an entire generation of baseball fans in San Francisco as well as the entire country.
