Silent John Hummell Veteran Utility Man Passes Milestone
John Hummell, longtime utility player for Brooklyn, reaches his thirty third milestone today despite Dodgers release earlier this year.

He played every infield and outfield position and was near ideal in utility roles, excelling at first base while delivering steady hitting and a calm, unemotional temper that earned him the nickname Silent John.
