Cecil Fielder was pretty good, but unfortunately he was too heavy to really have much longevity. But hitting a ball onto the roof of Tiger Stadium? Wow.

Also Fielder was one of the very small number of players (up until 1993) to have hit 50 home runs in a season. I think there were only 6 or 8. Of course now there's like 30--but still--an impressive stat.

Cecil was a good one. Didn't need steroids to make him big and strong.
