Eddie Clarence Murray (born February 24, 1956), nicknamed "Steady Eddie", is an American former Major League Baseball (MLB) first baseman, designated hitter, and coach. Spending most of his MLB career with the Baltimore Orioles, he ranks fourth in team history in both games played and hits. Though Murray never won a Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award, he finished in the top ten in MVP voting several times. He had 996 runs batted in in the 1980s, more than any other player. After his playing career, Murray coached for the Orioles, Cleveland Indians, and Los Angeles Dodgers.
Murray is one of only seven players in MLB history to be in both the 3,000 hit club and the 500 home run club.[1] He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2003.[2] In the New Bill James Historical Baseball Abstract (2001), Murray is described as the fifth-best first baseman in major league history. He was 77th on the list of Baseball's 100 Greatest Players by The Sporting News (1998).
