}} Michael Andreas Kreevich ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|k|r|iː|v|ɪ|tʃ}}; June 10, 1908 – April 25, 1994) was an American Major League Baseball player who was primarily an outfielder during the 1930s and 1940s. He was born in Mount Olive, Illinois, and batted and threw right-handed. Early lifeKreevich started working in the coal mines in late 1924 at the age of 16. Although short of stature (five feet and seven and a half inches tall), he developed a muscular physique while coal mining for almost five years. With the Great Depression, the coal mines closed in 1930. It was about this time that he was invited to play for a team in McCook, Nebraska. Kreevich soon went from that small town team to the National League's Chicago Cubs, thanks to a scout who recognized the talent in him. CareerKreevich began his career in {{mlby|1931}} with the Chicago Cubs, but only played five games for them. In {{mlby|1935}}, he joined the cross-town Chicago White Sox, but did not become a regular until {{mlby|1936}}. In {{mlby|1937}} he led the American League in triples and sacrifice flies while batting .302, and finishing 10th in the American League MVP Award voting. In {{mlby|1939}} he again finished 10th in the American League MVP Award voting, while batting .323. He was also named to the American League All-Star team in {{mlby|1938}}. After the {{mlby|1941}} season, Kreevich was traded to the Philadelphia Athletics. He was released after only one season, and signed with the St. Louis Browns before the {{mlby|1943}} campaign. While with the Browns he played in the all-St. Louis 1944 World Series against the Cardinals. In the middle of the {{mlby|1945}} season, he was purchased by the Washington Senators; he finished his career after that season in the nation's capital. In 1241 games played over 12 seasons, Kreevich compiled a .283 batting average (1321-4676) with 676 runs, 221 doubles, 75 triples, 45 home runs, 514 RBI, 115 stolen bases, 446 bases on balls, .346 on-base percentage and a .391 slugging percentage. His career fielding percentage was .981. See also
