Daryl Spencer

Daryl Dean Spencer (July 13, 1928 in Wichita, Kansas), is a former professional baseball player. He was a utility infielder, playing shortstop, second base, and third base in the major leagues from 1952-1963. He played for the New York Giants, San Francisco Giants, St. Louis Cardinals, Cincinnati Reds, and Los Angeles Dodgers.

He later played for the Hankyu Braves in the Pacific League in Japan between 1964 and 1972. This has wryly been seen as an example of being "Big in Japan". He revolutionized Japanese Professional Baseball by introducing the aggressive and cerebral style of game played in the Major League Baseball.^{[citation needed]}
