Autorenporträt
Frank White's career with the Kansas City Royals had enough highs to counter the lows when the Hall of Fame second baseman and the club he called home for 18 years parted ways in 2012. He became the premier second baseman of his era, winning a then record-tying eight Gold Gloves, earning five All-Star Game berths and hitting cleanup in the 1985 World Series, when the Royals came back from a 3-1 deficit to earn the team's lone world championship in seven games. White retired as a player in 1990 and in 1995, his No. 20 joined George Brett's No. 5 and late manager Dick Howser's No. 10 as the only numbers in the history of the team to have been retired. He and his wife Teresa live in Lee's Summit.
