Houston third baseman Doug Rader blends humor with hard play as he drives in runs and patrols third base. Known as The Rooster, he fuels double plays and long balls while balancing a clownish reputation with a serious love of the game and family. His 253 batting average rides a hot streak, even as his quirky antics captivate teammates and observers alike.
